Sanjay Patel 99a5482014 [x86] make SLM extract vector element more expensive than default
I'm not sure what the effect of this change will be on all of the affected
tests or a larger benchmark, but it fixes the horizontal add/sub problems
noted here:
https://reviews.llvm.org/D59710?vs=227972&id=228095&whitespace=ignore-most#toc

The costs are based on reciprocal throughput numbers in Agner's tables for
PEXTR*; these appear to be very slow ops on Silvermont.

This is a small step towards the larger motivation discussed in PR43605:
https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=43605

Also, it seems likely that insert/extract is the source of perf regressions on
other CPUs (up to 30%) that were cited as part of the reason to revert D59710,
so maybe we'll extend the table-based approach to other subtargets.
