Without SSE41 (pextrb) we currently extract byte elements from a vector by spilling to stack and reloading the byte.
This patch is an initial attempt at using MOVD/PEXTRW to extract the relevant DWORD/WORD from the vector and then shift+truncate to collect the correct byte.
Extraction of multiple bytes this way would result in code bloat, but as explained in the patch we could probably afford to be more aggressive with the supported extractions before again falling back on spilling - possibly through counting the number of extracts and which DWORD/WORD they originate?

Its more profitable to go through memory (1 cycles throughput)
than using VMOVD + VPERMV/PSHUFB sequence ( 2/3 cycles throughput) to implement EXTRACT_VECTOR_ELT with variable index.
IACA tool was used to get performace estimation (https://software.intel.com/en-us/articles/intel-architecture-code-analyzer)
For example for var_shuffle_v16i8_v16i8_xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx_i8 test from vector-shuffle-variable-128.ll I get 26 cycles vs 79 cycles.
Removing the VINSERT node, we don't need it any more.

If a vector index is out of bounds, the result is supposed to be
undefined but is not undefined behavior. Change the legalization
for indexing the vector on the stack so that an out of bounds
index does not create an out of bounds memory access.

We are being inconsistent with these instructions (and all their variants.....) with a random mix of them using the default float domain.

Summary:
Replace a LEA instruction of the form 'lea (%esp), %ebx' --> 'mov %esp, %ebx'
MOV is preferable over LEA because usually there are more issue-slots available to execute MOVs than LEAs. Latest processors also support zero-latency MOVs.
Fixes pr29022.

An identity COPY like this:
%AL = COPY %AL, %EAX<imp-def>
has no semantic effect, but encodes liveness information: Further users
of %EAX only depend on this instruction even though it does not define
the full register.
Replace the COPY with a KILL instruction in those cases to maintain this
liveness information. (This reverts a small part of r238588 but this
time adds a comment explaining why a KILL instruction is useful).

Added constant index tests for all 256-bit integer vector types (touching lower / upper 128-bits)
Added variable index tests for all 256-bit integer vector types
Added out-of-range index tests for all 256-bit integer vector types

Summary: This patch correctly handles undef case of EXTRACT_VECTOR_ELT node where the element index is constant and not less than vector size.
Test Plan:
CodeGen for X86 test included.
Also one incorrect regression test fixed.
