In dotnet#1734 a change was made that substitutions are only considered for methods which are not instrinsic or no-inline. That is not how it should work, even intrinsic or no-inline methods should still allow substitutions and constant propagation from those. What instrinsic and no-inline methods should not do is participate in constant propagation as intermediate methods (so methods which become constant because they're calling other constant methods). In short substitutions effectively override the intrinsic/no-inline. Added test cases.
Also added a test to cover this
