Jim Grosbach 0e536ee4ca Legalize: Improve legalization of long vector extends.
When an extend more than doubles the size of the elements (e.g., a zext
from v16i8 to v16i32), the normal legalization method of splitting the
vectors will run into problems as by the time the destination vector is
legal, the source vector is illegal. The end result is the operation
often becoming scalarized, with the typical horrible performance. For
example, on x86_64, the simple input of:
define void @bar(<16 x i8> %a, <16 x i32>* %p) nounwind {
  %tmp = zext <16 x i8> %a to <16 x i32>
  store <16 x i32> %tmp, <16 x i32>*%p
  ret void
}

So instead we can check if there are legal types that enable us to split
more cleverly when the input vector is already legal such that we don't
turn it into an illegal type. If the extend is such that it's more than
doubling the size of the input we check if
  - the number of vector elements is even,
  - the source type is legal,
  - the type of a split source is illegal,
  - the type of an extended (by doubling element size) source is legal, and
  - the type of that extended source when split is legal.
If the conditions are met, instead of just splitting both the
destination and the source types, we create an extend that only goes up
one "step" (doubling the element width), and the continue legalizing the
rest of the operation normally. The result is that this operates as a
new, more effecient, termination condition for the loop of "split the
operation until the destination type is legal."

With this change, the above example now compiles to:
_bar:
  vpxor %xmm1, %xmm1, %xmm1
  vpunpcklbw  %xmm1, %xmm0, %xmm2
  vpunpckhwd  %xmm1, %xmm2, %xmm3
  vpunpcklwd  %xmm1, %xmm2, %xmm2
  vinsertf128 $1, %xmm3, %ymm2, %ymm2
  vpunpckhbw  %xmm1, %xmm0, %xmm0
  vpunpckhwd  %xmm1, %xmm0, %xmm3
  vpunpcklwd  %xmm1, %xmm0, %xmm0
  vinsertf128 $1, %xmm3, %ymm0, %ymm0
  vmovaps %ymm0, 32(%rdi)
  vmovaps %ymm2, (%rdi)

This generalizes a custom lowering that was added a while back to the
ARM backend. That lowering is no longer necessary, and is removed. The
testcases for it, however, provide excellent ARM tests for this change
and so remain.
