Subject: [PATCH 2/2] Avoid optimization that beam_validator might consider
 unsafe

Eliminating a repeated `=:=` test can result in code that
beam_validator doesn't consider safe. This commit makes the optimization
keep the `=:=` if it seems to be significant, that is, if one or both
operands will gain type information from it.

That makes it possible to compile code from #6599 such as:

f(X, X) when is_integer(X) ->
        ok;
    f(Y, Y = #{}) ->
        Y#{ok := ok}.

(Six other examples from #6599 can now also be compiled.)

Running `scripts/diffable` shows that this fix prevented the
optimization in 14 modules (out of about 1000).

Closes #6599
