sext <4 x i1> to <4 x i64>
sext <4 x i8> to <4 x i64>
sext <4 x i16> to <4 x i64>
I'm running Combine on SIGN_EXTEND_IN_REG and revert SEXT patterns:
(sext_in_reg (v4i64 anyext (v4i32 x )), ExtraVT) -> (v4i64 sext (v4i32 sext_in_reg (v4i32 x , ExtraVT)))
The sext_in_reg (v4i32 x) may be lowered to shl+sar operations.
The "sar" does not exist on 64-bit operation, so lowering sext_in_reg (v4i64 x) has no vector solution.
I also added a cost of this operations to the AVX costs table.

The optimization handles esoteric cases but adds a lot of complexity both to the X86 backend and to other backends.
This optimization disables an important canonicalization of chains of SEXT nodes and makes SEXT and ZEXT asymmetrical.
Disabling the canonicalization of consecutive SEXT nodes into a single node disables other DAG optimizations that assume
that there is only one SEXT node. The AVX mask optimizations is one example. Additionally this optimization does not update the cost model.

Also loosen the SSSE3 dependency a bit, expanded pshufb + psra is still better
than scalarized loads. Fixes PR14590.
