Say 'memory lifetime' rather than 'memory life' as lifetime is the more
standard term nowadays (indeed we have e.g. -fno-lifetime-dse).
It's also easier to grep for if someone is looking for the documentation on
where we do that.
gcc/ChangeLog:
* doc/passes.texi (Dead code elimination): Explicitly say 'lifetime'
as this has become the standard term for what we're doing here.
