This will currently accept the old number of bytes syntax, and convert
it to a scalar. This should be removed in the near future (I think I
converted all of the tests already, but likely missed a few).
Not sure what the exact syntax and policy should be. We can continue
printing the number of bytes for non-generic instructions to avoid
test churn and only allow non-scalar types for generic instructions.
This will currently print the LLT in parentheses, but accept parsing
the existing integers and implicitly converting to scalar. The
parentheses are a bit ugly, but the parser logic seems unable to deal
without either parentheses or some keyword to indicate the start of a
type.
VirtRegRewriter may sometimes fail to correctly apply the kill flag where necessary,
which causes unecessary code gen on PowerPC. This patch fixes the way masks for
defined lanes are computed and the way mask for used lanes is computed.

Following on from D87757 "[SplitKit] Only copy live lanes", it is
possible to split a live range at a point when none of its subranges
are live. This patch handles that case by inserting an implicit def
of the superreg.
