The scalarization overhead was set deliberately high for MVE, whilst the
codegen was new. It helps protect us against the negative ramifications
of mixing scalar and vector instructions. This decreases that,
especially for floating point where the cost of extracting/inserting
lane elements can be low. For integer the cost is still fairly high due
to the cross-register-bank copy, but is no longer n^2 in the length of
the vector.
In general, this will decrease the cost of scalarizing floats and long
integer vectors. i64 increase in cost, having a high cost before and
after this patch. For floats this allows up to start doing things like
vectorizing fdiv instructions, even if they are scalarized.

COST(zext (<4 x i32> load(...) to <4 x i64>)) != 0 when
<4 x i64> is an illegal result type that requires splitting
of the operation.

This adds the CostKind to getMVEVectorCostFactor, so that it can
automatically account for CodeSize costs, where it returns a cost of 1
not the MVEFactor used for Throughput/Latency. This helps simplify the
caller code and allows us to get the codesize cost more correct in more
cases.
This adds some basic MVE masked load/store costs, notably changing the
cost of legal loads/stores to the MVECostFactor and the cost of
scalarized instructions to 8*NumElts.

As with other targets, set the throughput cost of control-flow
instructions to free so that we don't miss out of vectorization
opportunities.

This patch uses the feature added in D79162 to fix the cost of a
sext/zext of a masked load, or a trunc for a masked store.
Previously, those were considered cheap or even free, but it's
not the case as we cannot split the load in the same way we would for
normal loads.
This updates the costs to better reflect reality, and adds a test for it
in test/Analysis/CostModel/ARM/cast.ll.
It also adds a vectorizer test that showcases the improvement: in some
cases, the vectorizer will now choose a smaller VF when
tail-predication is enabled, which results in better codegen. (Because
if it were to use a higher VF in those cases, the code we see above
would be generated, and the vmovs would block tail-predication later in
the process, resulting in very poor codegen overall)

This adjusts the MVE fp16 cost model, similar to how we already do for
integer casts. It uses the base cost of 1 per cvt for most fp extend /
truncates, but adjusts it for loads and stores where we know that a
extending load has been used to get the load into the correct lane, and
only an MVE VCVTB is then needed.

This adds some default costs for fp extends and truncates, generally
costing them as 1 per lane. If the type is not legal then the cost will
include a call to an __aeabi_ function.
Some NEON code is also adjusted to make sure it applies to the expected
types, now that fp16 is a more common thing.

This expands the existing extend costs with a few extras for larger
types than legal, which will usually be split under MVE. It also adds
trunk support for the same thing. These should not have a large effect
on many things, but makes the costs explicit and keeps a certain balance
between the trunks and extends.

This alters getMemoryOpCost to use the Base TargetTransformInfo version
that includes some additional checks for whether extending loads are
legal. This will generally have the effect of making <2 x ..> and some
<4 x ..> loads/stores more expensive, which in turn should help favour
larger vector factors.
Notably it alters the cost of a <4 x half>, which with the current
codegen will be expensive if it is not extended.

This file has grown quite large and could do with being split up. This
splits away the load/store + cast tests into a separate file. Some
masked load/store + cast tests have been added too, along with some
extra load/store + fpcast tests.
