Using the store rightmost vector element instructions to do vector
element extraction and store. The rightmost vector element on little
endian is the zeroth vector element, with these patterns that element
can be extracted and stored in one instruction for all vector types.

This rewrites big parts of the fast register allocator. The basic
strategy of doing block-local allocation hasn't changed but I tweaked
several details:
Track register state on register units instead of physical
registers. This simplifies and speeds up handling of register aliases.
Process basic blocks in reverse order: Definitions are known to end
register livetimes when walking backwards (contrary when walking
forward then uses may or may not be a kill so we need heuristics).
Check register mask operands (calls) instead of conservatively
assuming everything is clobbered. Enhance heuristics to detect
killing uses: In case of a small number of defs/uses check if they are
all in the same basic block and if so the last one is a killing use.
Enhance heuristic for copy-coalescing through hinting: We check the
first k defs of a register for COPYs rather than relying on there just
being a single definition. When testing this on the full llvm
test-suite including SPEC externals I measured:
average 5.1% reduction in code size for X86, 4.9% reduction in code on
aarch64. (ranging between 0% and 20% depending on the test) 0.5%
faster compiletime (some analysis suggests the pass is slightly slower
than before, but we more than make up for it because later passes are
faster with the reduced instruction count)
Also adds a few testcases that were broken without this patch, in
particular bug 47278.
Patch mostly by Matthias Braun
This patch implements the builtins for Vector Load with Zero and Signed Extend Builtins (lxvr_x for b, h, w, d), and adds the appropriate test cases for these builtins. The builtins utilize the vector load instructions itnroduced with ISA 3.1.

This patch implements the `vec_xst_trunc` function in altivec.h in order to
utilize the Store VSX Vector Rightmost [byte | half | word | doubleword] Indexed
instructions introduced in Power10.

The implementation of the xvtlsbb builtins/intrinsics were not correct as the
intrinsics previously used i1 as an argument type. This patch changes the i1
argument type used in these intrinsics to be i32 instead, as having the second
as an i1 can lead to issues in the backend.
