Removed AArch64 usage of the getMaxVScale interface, replacing it with
the vscale_range(min, max) IR Attribute.

This patch adds a new option to the LoopVectorizer to control how
scalable vectors can be used.
Initially, this suggests three levels to control scalable
vectorization, although other more aggressive options can be added in
the future.
The possible options are:
- Disabled: Disables vectorization with scalable vectors.
- Enabled: Vectorize loops using scalable vectors or fixed-width
vectors, but favors fixed-width vectors when the cost
is a tie.
- Preferred: Like 'Enabled', but favoring scalable vectors when the
cost-model is inconclusive.

D95598 added a cost model for broadcast shuffle, which should enable loops
such as the following to vectorize, where the load of b[42] is invariant
and can be done using a scalar load + splat:
for (int i=0; i<n; ++i)
a[i] = b[i] + b[42];
This patch adds tests to verify that we can vectorize such loops.

For loops of the form:
void foo(int *a, int *cond, short *inv, long long n) {
for (long long i=0; i<n; ++i) {
if (cond[i])
a[i] = *inv;
}
}
we can vectorise for SVE using masked gather loads where the array
of pointers is simply a vector splat of 'inv' and the mask comes
from the condition 'cond[i] != 0'.
This patch simply adds tests upstream to defend this capability.
