iris: Disable GLSL lower_const_arrays_to_uniforms.

We want to use nir_opt_large_constants() instead (which is already
enabled), since that doesn't involve uploading the large immediate data
array again on each CB0 update.  The downside is a bit of addressing math,
since constant_data is accessed using 64-bit global addresses.

The shader-db results are a bit all over:

All Iris driver platforms had similar results. (Ice Lake shown)
total instructions in shared programs: 19910185 -> 19913931 (0.02%)
instructions in affected programs: 225374 -> 229120 (1.66%)
helped: 3 / HURT: 348

total cycles in shared programs: 856004856 -> 855016808 (-0.12%)
cycles in affected programs: 22832422 -> 21844374 (-4.33%)
helped: 277 / HURT: 101

total spills in shared programs: 6580 -> 6609 (0.44%)
spills in affected programs: 516 -> 545 (5.62%)

total fills in shared programs: 8235 -> 8267 (0.39%)
fills in affected programs: 1022 -> 1054 (3.13%)

total sends in shared programs: 1039347 -> 1039095 (-0.02%)
sends in affected programs: 16367 -> 16115 (-1.54%)
helped: 251 / HURT: 0

LOST:   5
GAINED: 2

LOST:
- 3 SIMD16 fragment shaders (Superposition)
- 2 SIMD16 compute shaders (Aztec Ruins)

GAINED:
- fake news... 2 SIMD8 compute shaders that replace the lost SIMD16
  compute shaders.
