When lowering a BUILD_VECTOR SDNode, we choose among various possible vector
creation instructions in an attempt to minimize the total number of instructions
used. We previously considered using swizzles, consts, and splats, and this
patch adds shuffles as well. A common pattern that now lowers to shuffles is
when two 64-bit vectors are concatenated. Previously, concatenations generally
lowered to sequences of extract_lane and replace_lane instructions when they
could have been a single shuffle.
