codegen/llvm: add workarounds to loadTruncate() for llvm codegen bugs
for wasm, as a heuritic, only enable truncation for values smaller than 32bits. -> the bug is no longer triggered in most use cases (or at least the test suite...) as for powerpc, adding a redundant `and mask` produces working code.
