An expression like "x == 0/0" does not test any actual bits in field x,
so it resolves to true, but expr_simplify() was not smart enough to see
this.

This goes beyond an optimization, to become a bug fix, because
expr_normalize() will assert-fail for expressions that become trivial
when this simplification is omitted.  For example:

    $ echo 'eth.dst == 0/0 && eth.dst == 0/0' | tests/ovstest test-ovn 
normalize-expr
    test-ovn: ../include/openvswitch/list.h:245: assertion 
!ovs_list_is_empty(list) failed in ovs_list_front()
    Aborted (core dumped)

This commit fixes this and related problems.

The test added by this commit is very specific to the particular problem,
whereas a more general test would be better.  A later commit adds the
general test.
