CostModel: Add parameter to instruction cost to further classify operand values

On certain architectures we can support efficient vectorized version of
instructions if the operand value is uniform (splat) or a constant scalar.
An example of this is a vector shift on x86.

We can efficiently support

for (i = 0 ; i < ; i += 4)
  w[0:3] = v[0:3] << <2, 2, 2, 2>

but not

for (i = 0; i < ; i += 4)
  w[0:3] = v[0:3] << x[0:3]

This patch adds a parameter to getArithmeticInstrCost to further qualify operand
values as uniform or uniform constant.

Targets can then choose to return a different cost for instructions with such
operand values.

A follow-up commit will test this feature on x86.
