Introduce is_map_key/2 guard BIF
This complements the `map_get/2` guard BIF introduced in #1784. Rationale. `map_get/2` allows accessing map fields in guards, but it might be problematic in more complex guard expressions, for example: foo(X) when map_get(a, X) =:= 1 or is_list(X) -> ... The `is_list/1` part of the guard could never succeed since the `map_get/2` guard would fail the whole guard expression. In this situation, this could be solved by using `;` instead of `or` to separate the guards, but it is not possible in every case. To solve this situation, this PR proposes a `is_map_key/2` guard that allows to check if a map has key inside a guard before trying to access that key. When combined with `is_map/1` this allows to construct a purely boolean guard expression testing a value of a key in a map. Implementation. Given the use case motivating the introduction of this function, the PR contains compiler optimisations that produce optimial code for the following guard expression: foo(X) when is_map(X) and is_map_key(a, X) and map_get(a, X) =:= 1 -> ok; foo(_) -> error. Given all three tests share the failure label, the `is_map_key/2` and `is_map/2` tests are optimised away. As with `map_get/2` the `is_map_key/2` BIF is allowed in match specs.
