[AMD] Disable block merging to avoid block argument explosion (triton…

…-lang#4176)

This PR disable block merging when running
`convert-builtin-func-to-llvm`.

The reason behind this is that for now block merging can double the
arguments of the blocks. This means that after a while we can start
witnessing a block argument "explosion" which hangs the compiler.

I am working on this ticket:
llvm/llvm-project#63230 to make block merging
better, but in the meantime, we should stop merging blocks to avoid
compiler hangs.

I added the minimal test to reproduce the explosion. The test for now is
checking that we don't try to merge blocks.
