This prepares codegen for a change that will remove the identical
folds from IR because they are not poison-safe. See
D93065 / D97360
for details.
We already generically support scalar types, and there are various
target-specific transforms that overlap the vector folds. For example,
x86 recognizes the and patterns, but not or. We can end up with 1
extra instruction there, but I think that is still preferred over the
blendv alternative that loads a constant vector.
If this is not optimal, then it should be fixed with a later transform
(this change is not expected to result in any regressions because
InstCombine currently does the same thing).
Removing custom code and supporting undefs in constant-pattern-matching
can be follow-up changes.
