The fix applied in D23303 "LiveIntervalAnalysis: fix a crash in repairOldRegInRange"
was over-zealous. It would bail out when the end of the range to be
repaired was in the middle of the first segment of the live range of
Reg, which was always the case when the range contained a single def of
Reg.
This patch fixes it as suggested by Matthias Braun in post-commit review
on the original patch, and tests it by adding -early-live-intervals to
a selection of existing lit tests that now pass.
(Note that D23303 was originally applied to fix a crash in
SILoadStoreOptimizer, but that is now moot since D23814 updated
SILoadStoreOptimizer to run before scheduling so it no longer has to
update live intervals.)

Summary:
For vector element types which are not byte-sized, we would generate
incorrect scalar offsets and produce incorrect codegen.
This optimization could potentially be supported in the future, e.g. by
loading in bytes, then shifting and masking out the remaining bits of
the vector element. However, without an upstream target to test against
it's best to avoid the bad codegen in the simplest possible way.
