intel/fs: Emit better code for b2f(inot(a)) and b2i(inot(a))

Since Boolean values are either -1 (true) or 0 (false), b2f(inot(a))
maps -1 => 0.0 and 0 => 1.0.  This is equivalent to 1.0 +
float(boolBitsToInt(a)).  On Intel GPUs, ADD is one of the few
instructions that can type-convert during write to destination, so we
can achieve this in a single instruction:

    add    g47F, g26D, 1D

v2: Fix swizzles.

v3: Fix typos in comments.  Noticed by Ken.

All Gen6+ platforms had similar results. (Skylake shown)
