expanding: e.g. <2 x float> -> <4 x float> instead of -> 2 floats. This
affects two places in the code: handling cross block values and handling
function return and arguments. Since vectors are already widened by
legalizetypes, this gives us much better code and unblocks x86-64 abi
and SPU abi work.
For example, this (which is a silly example of a cross-block value):
define <4 x float> @test2(<4 x float> %A) nounwind {
%B = shufflevector <4 x float> %A, <4 x float> undef, <2 x i32> <i32 0, i32 1>
%C = fadd <2 x float> %B, %B
br label %BB
BB:
%D = fadd <2 x float> %C, %C
%E = shufflevector <2 x float> %D, <2 x float> undef, <4 x i32> <i32 0, i32 1, i32 undef, i32 undef>
ret <4 x float> %E
}
Now compiles into:
_test2: ## @test2
## BB#0:
addps %xmm0, %xmm0
addps %xmm0, %xmm0
ret
previously it compiled into:
_test2: ## @test2
## BB#0:
addps %xmm0, %xmm0
pshufd $1, %xmm0, %xmm1
## kill: XMM0<def> XMM0<kill> XMM0<def>
insertps $0, %xmm0, %xmm0
insertps $16, %xmm1, %xmm0
addps %xmm0, %xmm0
ret

replace an OpA with a widened OpB, it is possible to get new uses of OpA due to CSE
when recursively updating nodes. Since OpA has been processed, the new uses are
not examined again. The patch checks if this occurred and it it did, updates the
new uses of OpA to use OpB.

integer and floating-point opcodes, introducing
FAdd, FSub, and FMul.
For now, the AsmParser, BitcodeReader, and IRBuilder all preserve
backwards compatability, and the Core LLVM APIs preserve backwards
compatibility for IR producers. Most front-ends won't need to change
immediately.
This implements the first step of the plan outlined here:
