When combiner AA is enabled, look at stores on the same chain.
Non-aliasing stores are moved to the same chain so the existing
code fails because it expects to find an adajcent store on a consecutive
chain.
Because of how DAGCombiner tries these store combines,
MergeConsecutiveStores doesn't see the correct set of stores on the chain
when it visits the other stores. Each store individually has its chain
fixed before trying to merge consecutive stores, and then tries to merge
stores from that point before the other stores have been processed to
have their chains fixed. To fix this, attempt to use FindBetterChain
on any possibly neighboring stores in visitSTORE.
Suppose you have 4 32-bit stores that should be merged into 1 vector
store. One store would be visited first, fixing the chain. What happens is
because not all of the store chains have yet been fixed, 2 of the stores
are merged. The other 2 stores later have their chains fixed,
but because the other stores were already merged, they have different
memory types and merging the two different sized stores is not
supported and would be more difficult to handle.

The ABI allows sub-128 vectors to be passed and returned in registers,
with the vector occupying the upper part of a register. We therefore
want to legalize those types by widening the vector rather than promoting
the elements.
The patch includes some simple tests for sub-128 vectors and also tests
that we can recognize various pack sequences, some of which use sub-128
vectors as temporary results. One of these forms is based on the pack
sequences generated by llvmpipe when no intrinsics are used.
Signed unpacks are recognized as BUILD_VECTORs whose elements are
individually sign-extended. Unsigned unpacks can have the equivalent
form with zero extension, but they also occur as shuffles in which some
elements are zero.
Based on a patch by Richard Sandiford.
