1. the `primitive == object?.something` fusion should not apply to
`primitive.equals(object?.something)` because it can't;
2. coercions to Int are there for a reason - don't remove them;
3. better optimize `primitive == object?.something` -- the result
should be subject to if-null fusion, so it needs to have a specific
pattern that resembles safe calls.

comparisons.
Having those conversions leads to unnecesary boxing and null checks.
This change does it only for JVM in the optimization lowering. It
is unclear to me if the other backends can get away with something
similar.
- Turn some const conditions into non-const conditions
- Make sure inlined const values are used where required
(otherwise they are eliminated by POP backward propagation)
