Thanks to Peter Cawley.
(cherry picked from commit f72c19e482b6f918b7cf42b0436e2b117d160a29)
Instructions with strong guards that are sometimes emitted with a guard
and sometimes emitted without a guard (like HREFK, CONV, or SLOAD) may
be eliminated from the IR chain and replaced with the NOP IR. If the
next IR of the same kind on the trace is not eliminated, it may
reference the IR NOP instead of an instruction of the same type. This
may lead to the corresponding assertion failure in the `rec_check_ir()`.
This patch unconditionally links the IRs during chain maintenance in
DCE.

---
Be aware that the reproducer from the ticket does not lead to the
assertion failure (this is why it is omitted in the test). I suppose it
just illustrates the situation when the IR is left off the chain.
Although the reproducer is clumsy, I can't simplify it or make it less
tricky. Please, ideas are welcome :).

I suppose an IR output would be helpful here. What do you think?<br>
