Summary:
Initially, these intrinsics seemed like part of a family of "frame"
related intrinsics, but now I think that's more confusing than helpful.
Initially, the LangRef specified that this would create a new kind of
allocation that would be allocated at a fixed offset from the frame
pointer (EBP/RBP). We ended up dropping that design, and leaving the
stack frame layout alone.
These intrinsics are really about sharing local stack allocations, not
frame pointers. I intend to go further and add an `llvm.localaddress()`
intrinsic that returns whatever register (EBP, ESI, ESP, RBX) is being
used to address locals, which should not be confused with the frame
pointer.
Naming suggestions at this point are welcome, I'm happy to re-run sed.

The incoming EBP value established by the runtime is actually a pointer
to the end of the EH registration object, and not the true parent
function frame pointer. Clang doesn't need llvm.x86.seh.exceptioninfo
anymore because we know that the exception info pointer is at a fixed
offset from this incoming EBP.
The llvm.x86.seh.recoverfp intrinsic takes an EBP value provided by the
EH runtime and returns a pointer that is usable with llvm.framerecover.
The llvm.x86.seh.restoreframe intrinsic is inserted by the 32-bit
specific preparation pass in blocks targetted by the EH runtime. It
re-establishes any physical registers used by the parent function to
address the stack, such as the frame, base, and stack pointers.
Neither of these intrinsics correctly handle stack realignment prologues
yet, but it's possible to add that later.

This intrinsic is like framerecover plus a load. It recovers the EH
registration stack allocation from the parent frame and loads the
exception information field out of it, giving back a pointer to an
EXCEPTION_POINTERS struct. It's designed for clang to use in SEH filter
expressions instead of accessing the EXCEPTION_POINTERS parameter that
is available on x64.
This required a minor change to MC to allow defining a label variable to
another absolute framerecover label variable.

This should complete the job started in r231794 and continued in r232045:
We want to replace as much custom x86 shuffling via intrinsics
as possible because pushing the code down the generic shuffle
optimization path allows for better codegen and less complexity
in LLVM.
AVX2 introduced proper integer variants of the hacked integer insert/extract
C intrinsics that were created for this same functionality with AVX1.
This should complete the removal of insert/extract128 intrinsics.
The Clang precursor patch for this change was checked in at r232109.

Now that we've replaced the vinsertf128 intrinsics,
do the same for their extract twins.
This is very much like D8086 (checked in at r231794):
We want to replace as much custom x86 shuffling via intrinsics
as possible because pushing the code down the generic shuffle
optimization path allows for better codegen and less complexity
in LLVM.
This is also the LLVM sibling to the cfe D8275 patch.

The intrinsic is no longer generated by the front-end. Remove the intrinsic and
auto-upgrade it to a vector shuffle.
