BasicTTI::getMemoryOpCost must explicitly check for non-simple types; setting
AllowUnknown=true with TLI->getSimpleValueType is not sufficient because, for
example, non-power-of-two vector types return non-simple EVTs (not MVT::Other).

This provides more realistic costs for the insert/extractelement instructions
(which are load/store pairs), accounts for the cheap unaligned Altivec load
sequence, and for unaligned VSX load/stores.
Bad news:
MultiSource/Applications/sgefa/sgefa - 35% slowdown (this will require more investigation)
SingleSource/Benchmarks/McGill/queens - 20% slowdown (we no longer vectorize this, but it was a constant store that was scalarized)
MultiSource/Benchmarks/FreeBench/pcompress2/pcompress2 - 2% slowdown
Good news:
SingleSource/Benchmarks/Shootout/ary3 - 54% speedup
SingleSource/Benchmarks/Shootout-C++/ary - 40% speedup
MultiSource/Benchmarks/Ptrdist/ks/ks - 35% speedup
MultiSource/Benchmarks/FreeBench/neural/neural - 30% speedup
MultiSource/Benchmarks/TSVC/Symbolics-flt/Symbolics-flt - 20% speedup
Unfortunately, estimating the costs of the stack-based scalarization sequences
is hard, and adjusting these costs is like a game of whac-a-mole :( I'll
revisit this again after we have better codegen for vector extloads and
truncstores and unaligned load/stores.

When a vector type legalizes to a larger vector type, and the target does not
support the associated extending load (or truncating store), then legalization
will scalarize the load (or store) resulting in an associated scalarization
cost. BasicTTI::getMemoryOpCost needs to account for this.
Between this, and r205487, PowerPC on the P7 with VSX enabled shows:
MultiSource/Benchmarks/PAQ8p/paq8p: 43% speedup
SingleSource/Benchmarks/BenchmarkGame/puzzle: 51% speedup
SingleSource/UnitTests/Vectorizer/gcc-loops 28% speedup
(some of these are new; some of these, such as PAQ8p, just reverse regressions
that VSX support would trigger)
llvm-svn: 205495
This provides a place to add customized operation cost information and
control some other target-specific IR-level transformations.
The only non-trivial logic in this checkin assigns a higher cost to
unaligned loads and stores (covered by the included test case).
