Two more improvements for null pointer handling: storing a null pointer

and passing a null pointer into a function.

For this testcase:

void %test(int** %X) {
  store int* null, int** %X
  call void %test(int** null)
  ret void
}

we now generate this:

test:
        sub %ESP, 12
        mov %EAX, DWORD PTR [%ESP + 16]
        mov DWORD PTR [%EAX], 0
        mov DWORD PTR [%ESP], 0
        call test
        add %ESP, 12
        ret

instead of this:

test:
        sub %ESP, 12
        mov %EAX, DWORD PTR [%ESP + 16]
        mov %ECX, 0
        mov DWORD PTR [%EAX], %ECX
        mov %EAX, 0
        mov DWORD PTR [%ESP], %EAX
        call test
        add %ESP, 12
        ret
