Previously we went directly to unknown state on VTYPE mismatch.
If we instead remember the partial match, we can use this to
still use X0, X0 vsetvli in successors if AVL and needed SEW/LMUL
ratio match.

All that really matters is that the VLMAX of the preceding
instructions is the same as the VLMAX required by the mask
operation.
Also update the vmsge(u) handling to use the SEW/LMUL we use for
other mask register operations. We were matching it to the compare
before. Some cases will be improve if we fix masked compares to
use tail agnostic policy. I think they ignore the tail policy
anyway.

If an instruction's AVL operand is a PHI node in the same block,
we may be able to peek through the PHI to find vsetvli instructions
that produce the AVL in other basic blocks. If we can prove those
vsetvli instructions have the same VTYPE and were the last vsetvli
in their respective blocks, then we don't need to insert a vsetvli
for this pseudo instruction.

This can help avoid needing a virtual register for the vsetvl output
when the AVL is X0. For other register AVLs it can shorter the live
range of the AVL register if it isn't needed later.
There's probably no advantage when AVL is a 5 bit immediate that
can use vsetivli. But do it anyway for consistency.

We aren't going to connect the result to anything so we might
as well avoid allocating a register.

It's conceivable someone could put a vsetvli in inline assembly
so its safer to consider them as barriers. The alternative would
be to trust that the user marks VL and VTYPE registers as clobbers
of the inline assembly if they do that, but hat seems error prone.
I'm assuming inline assembly in vector code is going to be rare.

This patch extends D102737 to allow VL/VTYPE changes to be taken
into account before adding an explicit vsetvli.
We do this by using a data flow analysis to propagate VL/VTYPE
information from predecessors until we've determined a value for
every value in the function.
We use this information to determine if a vsetvli needs to be
inserted before the first vector instruction the block.

This is a replacement for D101938 for inserting vsetvli
instructions where needed. This new version changes how
we track the information in such a way that we can extend
it to be aware of VL/VTYPE changes in other blocks. Given
how much it changes the previous patch, I've decided to
abandon the previous patch and post this from scratch.
For now the pass consists of a single phase that assumes
the incoming state from other basic blocks is unknown. A
follow up patch will extend this with a phase to collect
information about how VL/VTYPE change in each block and
a second phase to propagate this information to the entire
function. This will be used by a third phase to do the
vsetvli insertion.
