Explicitly state the behavior of inbounds with a null pointer. 

See https://llvm.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=31439; this reflects LLVM's
behavior in practice, and should be compatible with C/C++ rules.

If the ``inbounds`` keyword is not present, the offsets are added to the
base address with silently-wrapping two's complement arithmetic. If the
