If value is bytewise, we will emit memset, which we can count as one store.
It's not always true that memset costs as a single store. However this is a 
heuristic, as the limit 6 itself.

Here I try to keep behavior close to original for zeroes.
In future patches I'd like to try to remove this function and use just 
"density" ((count memset bytes that match initializer)/(full size of 
initializer)). This will be simpler, should work good enough for exiting cases, 
and cover new cases with large initializers where 6 is not enough,
