There are cases of AVX-512 instructions that have two possible encodings. This is the case with instructions that use vector registers with low indexes of 0 - 15 and do not use the zmm registers or the mask k registers.
The EVEX encoding prefix requires 4 bytes whereas the VEX prefix can take only up to 3 bytes. Consequently, using the VEX encoding for these instructions results in a code size reduction of ~2 bytes even though it is compiled with the AVX-512 features enabled.

When the load node which the broadcast instruction broadcasts has multiple uses, it cannot be folded.
A fallback pattern is added to catch these cases and provide another solution.

Summary:
This allows us to create broadcasts of 128-bit vector loads into 512-bit vectors.
New patterns added to support 8-bit and 16-bit vector types and v2f64/v2i64->v8f64/v8i64 without DQI instructions.
There also fallback patterns when the load can't be folded. These patterns are a little complex as we first need to insert the lower 128-bits into the second 128-bits using a zmm subvector insert instruction. We need to use a zmm insert in case VLX isn't available. Then use another zmm sub vector insert to take those 256-bits and insert them into the upper bits. Since we used a zmm insert to create the 256-bits we also need to do a extract_subreg to get just the lower 256-bits to pass to the second insert.
The outer insert for the fallback patterns should have its type correct because eventually we should also supported masked operations here too. So we need a DQI and a NoDQI version of the v16f32/v16i32 patterns.
