Some of the lower implementations were relying on this, however the
type was not set depending on which form .lower* helper form you were
using. For instance, if you used an unconditonal lower(), the type was
never set. Most of the lower actions do not benefit from a type
parameter, and just expand in terms of the original operation's types.
However, some lowerings could benefit from an additional type hint to
combine a promotion and an expansion. An example of this is for
add/sub sat. The DAG integer legalization tries to use smarter
expansions directly when promoting the integer type, and doesn't
always produce the same instruction with a wider type.
Treat this as an optional hint argument, that only means something for
specific lower actions. It may be useful to generalize this mechanism
to pass a full list of type indexes and desired types, but I haven't
run into a case like that yet.
The legalizer page was in a fairly good state. I've mostly just inlined
some information as a note and removed a reference to potential future
work that I think is very unlikely to be done (it's very hard to tell if
a pattern or set of patterns fully covers a node due to C++ predicates).
Also added a note that 'selectable' doesn't mean that InstructionSelect
must do it.
