compiler: simplify code around getZeroValue

The LLVM library we use does not (yet) provide a llvm.Zero (like it
provides a llvm.Undef) so we have implemented our own. However, in
theory it might return an error in some cases.

No real-world errors have been seen in a while and errors would likely
indicate a serious compiler bug anyway (not an external error), so make
it panic instead of returning an error.
