Andrea Di Biagio 029a76b0a2 [Vectorizer] Add a new 'OperandValueKind' in TargetTransformInfo called
'OK_NonUniformConstValue' to identify operands which are constants but
not constant splats.

The cost model now allows returning 'OK_NonUniformConstValue'
for non splat operands that are instances of ConstantVector or
ConstantDataVector.

With this change, targets are now able to compute different costs
for instructions with non-uniform constant operands.
For example, On X86 the cost of a vector shift may vary depending on whether
the second operand is a uniform or non-uniform constant.

This patch applies the following changes:
 - The cost model computation now takes into account non-uniform constants;
 - The cost of vector shift instructions has been improved in
   X86TargetTransformInfo analysis pass;
 - BBVectorize, SLPVectorizer and LoopVectorize now know how to distinguish
   between non-uniform and uniform constant operands.

Added a new test to verify that the output of opt
'-cost-model -analyze' is valid in the following configurations: SSE2,
SSE4.1, AVX, AVX2.
