beam_trim: Stop using beam_utils:is_not_used/3
Eliminate the use of beam_utils:is_not_used/3 by implementing a simple
is_not_used() function in beam_trim itself. The new version actually
makes trimming possible in more circumstances, because
beam_utils:is_not_used/3 was too conservative for the purpose of stack
trimming (it was previously used for optimizations where it was
necessary to be more conservative).
Alternatives considered: I tried to implement stack trimming in
beam_ssa_codegen but it turned out to be a total mess. Not
surprisingly, it turns out that an optimization that renumbers
Y registers is hard to do on an intermediate representation that
still use variables instead of BEAM registers.
