In SLPVectorizer, the vector build instructions (insertvalue for aggregate type) is passed to BoUpSLP.buildTree, it is treated as UserIgnoreList, so later in cost estimation, the cost of these instructions are not counted.
For aggregate value, later usage are more likely to be done in scalar registers, either used as individual scalars or used as a whole for function call or return value. Ignore scalar extraction instructions may cause too aggressive vectorization for aggregate values, and slow down performance. So for vectorization of aggregate value, the scalar extraction instructions are required in cost estimation.

This patch fixes bug https://llvm.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=27897.
When query memory access cost, current SLP always passes in alignment value of 1 (unaligned), so it gets a very high cost of scalar memory access, and wrongly vectorize memory loads in the test case.
It can be fixed by simply giving correct alignment.
