Hi, Sergey!
Thanks for the patch!
LGTM, except for a few nits regarding the commit message.
 
 
From: Mike Pall <mike>

Reported by Sergey Kaplun.

(cherry picked from commit 96fc114a7a3be3fd2c227d5a0ac53aa50cfb85d1)

This commit is a follow-up for the commit
f067cf638cf8987ab3b6db372d609a5982e458b5 ("Fix narrowing of unary
minus."). Since this commit -0 IR constant is stored as well as +0
Typo: s/as well as/as well as the/
constant on the trace. Since IR NEWREF keys don't canonicalizied for -0
Typo: s/don’t canonicalized/don’t get canonicalized/
opposed of IR HREFK, it may lead to inconsistencies during trace
Typo: s/opposed of/as opposed to/
recording.

In particular, since -0 and 0 are different IR constants, alias analysis
declares that they can't be aliased during folding optimization.
Therefore:
1) For the IR TNEW we have non-nil value to lookup from the table via
   HLOAD, when only nil lookup is expected due to alias analysis.
2) For the IR TDUP we have non-nil value to lookup from the table via
   HLOAD, but the template table has no 0 field initiated as far as -0
   isn't folding to 0 during parsing (see `bcemit_unop()` in
   <src/lj_parse.c>).
These cases lead to the assertion failures in `fwd_ahload()`.
Typo: s/the assertion/assertion/

This patch adds the aforementioned canonicalization.

Sergey Bronnikov:
* reported the original issue for the TDUP IR

Sergey Kaplun:
* added the description and the test for the problem

Side note: I don't mention the 981 issue by intend -- I don't want to
bother Mike with force pushes:). I suppose Igor should add this line (if
he wants) went this commit will be cherry-picked to our master branch
(a.k.a. tarantool).
