This patch extends the optimization of VID-sequence BUILD_VECTORs
introduced in D104921 to include simple fractional steps composed of a
separated integer numerator and denominator.
A notable limitation in this sequence detection is that only sequences
with steps N/1 or 1/D are found, meaning that the step between elements
and the frequency with which it changes is consistent across the whole
sequence. Fractional steps such as 2/3 won't be matched as those would
involve more complex tracking of state or some level of backtracking.
As is stands, however, this patch is sufficient to match common
interleave-type shuffle indices, for example matching `<0,0,1,1>` (or
commonly `<0,u,1,u>` or `<u,0,u,1>`) to an index sequence divided by 2.
While the optimization is relatively `undef`-tolerant, due to greedy
pattern-matching there even are some simple patterns which confuse the
sequence detection into identifying either a suboptimal sequence or no
sequence at all.
Currently only fractional-step sequences identified as having a
power-of-two denominator are actually lowered to RVV instructions. This
is to avoid introducing divisions into the generated code.

This relands a6ca88e908 which was originally
reverted due to overflow bugs in e3fa2b1eab.
This patch teaches the compiler to identify a wider variety of
`BUILD_VECTOR`s which form integer arithmetic sequences, and to lower
them to `vid.v` with modifications for non-unit steps and non-zero
addends.
The sequences handled by this optimization must either be monotonically
increasing or decreasing. Consecutive elements holding the same value
indicate a fractional step which, while simple mathematically,
becomes more complex to handle both in the realm of lossy integer
division and in the presence of `undef`s.
For example, a common "interleaving" shuffle index will be lowered by
LLVM to both `<0,u,1,u,2,...>` and `<u,0,u,1,u,...>` `BUILD_VECTOR`
nodes. Either of these would ideally be lowered to `vid.v` shifted right
by 1. Detection of this sequence in presence of general `undef` values
is more complicated, however: `<0,u,u,1,>` could match either
`<0,0,0,1,>` or `<0,0,1,1,>` depending on later values in the sequence.
Both are possible, so backtracking or multiple passes is inevitable.
Sticking to monotonic sequences keeps the logic simpler as it can be
done in one pass. Fractional steps will likely be a separate
optimization in a future patch.

In 0.9 these were defined to leave elements other than 0 in the
destination unmodified. They were changed to use the tail policy
in 0.10. I missed that update.
I assume no one has noticed because in order cores treat tail
agnostic the same as tail undisturbed. I believe Spike and QEMU do
the same.

We aren't going to connect the result to anything so we might

My thought process is that if v2i64 is an LMUL=1 type then v2i32
should be an LMUL=1/2 type. We limit the fractional LMUL so that
SEW=64 clips to LMUL=1, SEW=32 clips to LMUL=1/2, etc. This
ensures there's always a fractional LMUL available to truncate a type.
This does reduce the number of vsetvlis in some cases.
Some tests increase vsetvlis because the best container type for a
mask type is dependent on the LMUL+SEW that the mask was produced
from, but you can't tell that from the type. I think this is
something we need to solve this in the machine IR when optimizing
vsetvlis.

This adds a special operand type that is allowed to be either
an immediate or register. By giving it a unique operand type the
machine verifier will ignore it.
This perturbs a lot of tests but mostly it is just slightly different
instruction orders. Something bad did happen to some min/max reduction
tests. We're spilling vector registers when we weren't before.

This patch adds further optimization techniques to RVV BUILD_VECTOR
lowering. It teaches the compiler to find splats of larger vector
element types "hidden" in smaller ones. For example, a v4i8 build_vector
(0x1, 0x2, 0x1, 0x2) could be splat as v2i16 0x0201. This is generally
more optimal than the dominant-element BUILD_VECTORs and so takes
priority.
This optimization is currently limited to all-constant-or-undef
BUILD_VECTORs as those were found to be the most common. There's no
reason this couldn't be extended to other BUILD_VECTORs, but the
additional bit-manipulation instructions may require more sophisticated
heuristics.
There are some cases where the materialization of the larger constant
takes more scalar instructions than it does to build the vector with
vector instructions. We could add heuristics to try and catch this.

I'm not sure how I failed to notice this before, but when optimizing
dominant-element BUILD_VECTORs we would lower via the scalable container type,
which lost us the information about the fixed length of the vector types. By
lowering via the fixed-length type we can preserve that information and
eliminate redundant vsetvli instructions.

This patch adds an optimization path for BUILD_VECTOR nodes where the
majority of the elements are identical. These can be splatted, with the
remaining elements patched up with INSERT_VECTOR_ELTs. The threshold can
be tweaked as required - it is currently conservative. Undef elements
are disregarded when judging the dominance of a particular element. This
allows them to be covered by the splat value.
In addition, vectors of 2 elements are always optimized to a splat (for
the upper element) and an insert at element zero.
This optimization is disabled when optimizing for size.

We always create the VL operand using a register, but if we can

This patch optimizes a build_vector "index sequence" and lowers it to
the existing custom RISCVISD::VID node. This pattern is common in
autovectorized code.
The custom node was updated to allow it to be used by both scalable and
fixed-length vectors, thus avoiding pattern duplication.
