Bob Wilson b1303d05a8 Change SelectionDAG type legalization to allow BUILD_VECTOR operands to be
promoted to legal types without changing the type of the vector.  This is
following a suggestion from Duncan
(http://lists.cs.uiuc.edu/pipermail/llvmdev/2009-February/019923.html).
The transformation that used to be done during type legalization is now
postponed to DAG legalization.  This allows the BUILD_VECTORs to be optimized
and potentially handled specially by target-specific code.

It turns out that this is also consistent with an optimization done by the
DAG combiner: a BUILD_VECTOR and INSERT_VECTOR_ELT may be combined by
replacing one of the BUILD_VECTOR operands with the newly inserted element;
but INSERT_VECTOR_ELT allows its scalar operand to be larger than the
element type, with any extra high bits being implicitly truncated.  The
result is a BUILD_VECTOR where one of the operands has a type larger the
the vector element type.

Any code that operates on BUILD_VECTORs may now need to be aware of the
potential type discrepancy between the vector element type and the
BUILD_VECTOR operands.  This patch updates all of the places that I could
find to handle that case.
