[BranchFolding] Remove dubious assert from operator< (#71639)

`MergePotentialElts::operator<` asserts that the two elements being
compared are not equal. However, sorting functions are allowed to invoke
the comparison function with equal arguments (though they usually don't
for efficiency reasons).

There is an existing special-case that disables the assert if
_GLIBCXX_DEBUG is used, which may invoke the comparator with equal args
to verify strict weak ordering. I believe libc++ also has strict weak
ordering checks under some options nowadays.

Recently, #71312 was reported, where a change to glibc's qsort_r
implementation can also result in comparison between equal elements.
From what I understood, this is an inefficiency that will be fixed on
the glibc side as well, but I think at this point we should just remove
this assertion.

Fixes #71312.

(cherry picked from commit 74a76a2)
