This allows us to, in some cases, create a vector_shuffle out of a build_vector, when
the inputs to the build are extract_elements from two different vectors, at least one
of which is wider than the output. (E.g. a <8 x i16> being constructed out of
elements from a <16 x i16> and a <8 x i16>).

This adds more tests for shuffles where the output width does not match
the input width and/or the output is generated from more than two inputs.

Prior to this, we could generate a vector_shuffle from an IR shuffle when the
size of the result was exactly the sum of the sizes of the input vectors.
If the output vector was narrower - e.g. a <12 x i8> being formed by a shuffle
with two <8 x i8> inputs - we would lower the shuffle to a sequence of extracts
and inserts.
Instead, we can form a larger vector_shuffle, and then extract a subvector
of the right size - e.g. shuffle the two <8 x i8> inputs into a <16 x i8>
and then extract a <12 x i8>.
This also includes a target-specific X86 combine that in the presence of
AVX2 combines:
(vector_shuffle <mask> (concat_vectors t1, undef)
(concat_vectors t2, undef))
into:
(vector_shuffle <mask> (concat_vectors t1, t2), undef)
in cases where this allows us to form VPERMD/VPERMQ.
(This is not a separate commit, as that pattern does not appear without
the DAGBuilder change.)
llvm-svn: 280418
Adds a baseline test for lowering shuffles where the width of the output
vector is not twice the size of the input vectors. Many of those sequences
are suboptimal, and will hopefully be improved in follow-up patches.
