Andrea Di Biagio 56a5661c60 [ConstantFolding] Fix wrong folding of intrinsic 'convert.from.fp16'. ...

Function 'ConstantFoldScalarCall' (in ConstantFolding.cpp) works under the
wrong assumption that a call to 'convert.from.fp16' returns a value of
type 'float'.
However, intrinsic 'convert.from.fp16' can be overloaded; for example, we
can call 'convert.from.fp16.f64' to convert from half to double; etc.

Before this patch, the following example would have triggered an assertion
failure in opt (with -constprop):

```
define double @foo() {
entry:
  %0 = call double @llvm.convert.from.fp16.f64(i16 0)
  ret double %0
}
```

This patch fixes the problem in ConstantFolding.cpp. When folding a call to
convert.from.fp16, we perform a different kind of conversion based on the call
return type.

Added test 'Transform/ConstProp/convert-from-fp16.ll'.
