MVE can treat v16i1, v8i1, v4i1 and v2i1 as different views onto the
same 16bit VPR.P0 register, with v2i1 holding two 8 bit values for the
two halves. This was never treated as a legal type in llvm in the past
as there are not many 64bit instructions and no 64bit compares. There
are a few instructions that could use it though, notably a VSELECT (as
it can handle any size using the underlying v16i8 VPSEL), AND/OR/XOR for
similar reasons, some gathers/scatter and long multiplies and VCTP64
instructions.
This patch goes through and makes v2i1 a legal type, handling all the
cases that fall out of that. It also makes VSELECT legal for v2i64 as a
side benefit. A lot of the codegen changes as a result - usually in way
that is a little better or a little worse, but still expensive. Costs
can change a little too in the process, again in a way that expensive
things remain expensive. A lot of the tests that changed are mainly to
ensure correctness - the code can hopefully be improved in the future
where it comes up in practice.
The intrinsics currently remain using the v4i1 they previously did to
emulate a v2i1. This will be changed in a followup patch but this one
was already large enough.

This patch marks the induction increment of the main induction variable
of the vector loop as NUW when not folding the tail.
If the tail is not folded, we know that End - Start >= Step (either
statically or through the minimum iteration checks). We also know that both
Start % Step == 0 and End % Step == 0. We exit the vector loop if %IV +
%Step == %End. Hence we must exit the loop before %IV + %Step unsigned
overflows and we can mark the induction increment as NUW.
This should make SCEV return more precise bounds for the created vector
loops, used by later optimizations, like late unrolling.
At the moment quite a few tests still need to be updated, but before
doing so I'd like to get initial feedback to make sure I am not missing
anything.
Note that this could probably be further improved by using information
from the original IV.

D99674 stopped the folding of certain select operations into and/or, due
to incorrect folding in the presence of poison. D97360 added some costs
to attempt to account for the change, but only worked at the getUserCost
level, not the getCmpSelInstrCost that the vectorizer will use directly.
This adds similar logic into the vectorizer to handle these logical
and/or selects, treating them like and/or directly.
This fixes 60% performance regressions from code like the attached test
case.
