 Stop the simplifier from removing StaticPtr binds.

 Summary:
 We have the FloatOut pass create exported ids for floated StaticPtr
 bindings. The simplifier doesn't try to remove those.

 This patch also improves on 7fc20b by making a common definition
 collectStaticPtrSatArgs to test for StaticPtr binds.

 Fixes #12207.

 Test Plan: ./validate
