[Mesa-dev] [PATCH 07/11] glsl: Lower unconditional return statements.

Previously, lower_jumps.cpp only lowered return statements that
appeared inside of an if statement.

Without this patch, lower_jumps.cpp might not lower certain return
statements, causing some back-ends to fail (as in bug #36669).

Fixes unit test test_lower_returns_1.
