As part of the effort to improve AIX support, regression test coverage
misses quite a lot for AIX subtarget. This patch adds AIX triple to
those don't need extra change, and we can cover more cases in following
commits.

Summary: Some constants can be handled with less instructions than our current results. And it seems our original approach is not very easy to extend. Therefore this patch proposes to materialize all 64-bit constants by enumerated patterns.
I traversed almost all constants to verified the functionality of these pattens. A traversed comparison of the number of instructions used by the original method and the new method has also been completed, where no degradation was caused by this patch. This patch also passed Bootstrap test and SPEC test.
Improvements of this patch are shown in llvm/test/CodeGen/PowerPC/constants-i64.ll

This patch exploits rldimi instruction for patterns like
`or %a, 0b000011110000`, which saves number of instructions when the
operand has only one use, compared with `li-ori-sldi-or`.
