MINOR: compiler: add ASSUME_NONNULL() to tell the compiler a pointer is valid
At plenty of places we have ALREADY_CHECKED() or DISGUISE() on a pointer
just to avoid "possibly null-deref" warnings. These ones have the side
effect of weakening optimizations by passing through an assembly step.
Using ASSUME_NONNULL() we can avoid that extra step. And when the
__builtin_unreachable() builtin is not present, we fall back to the old
method using assembly. The macro returns the input value so that it may
be used both as a declarative way to claim non-nullity or directly inside
an expression like DISGUISE().
