Eliminate excessive null-checks from slice iterators

The data pointer used in the slice is never null, using assume() to tell
LLVM about it gets rid of various unneeded null checks when iterating
over the slice.

Since the snapshot compiler is still using an older LLVM version, omit
the call in stage0, because compile times explode otherwise.
