Currently undef is used as a don’t-care vector when constructing a vector using a series of insertelement.
However, this is problematic because undef isn’t undefined enough.
Especially, a sequence of insertelement can be optimized to shufflevector, but using undef as its placeholder makes shufflevector a poison-blocking instruction because undef cannot be optimized to poison.
This makes a few straightforward optimizations incorrect, such as:
```
; https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=44185
define <4 x float> @insert_not_undef_shuffle_translate_commute(float %x, <4 x float> %y, <4 x float> %q) {
%xv = insertelement <4 x float> %q, float %x, i32 2
%r = shufflevector <4 x float> %y, <4 x float> %xv, <4 x i32> { 0, 6, 2, undef }
ret <4 x float> %r ; %r[3] is undef
}
=>
define <4 x float> @insert_not_undef_shuffle_translate_commute(float %x, <4 x float> %y, <4 x float> %q) {
%r = insertelement <4 x float> %y, float %x, i32 1
ret <4 x float> %r ; %r[3] = %y[3], incorrect if %y[3] = poison
}
Transformation doesn't verify!
ERROR: Target is more poisonous than source
```
I’d like to suggest
1. Using poison as insertelement’s placeholder value (IRBuilder::CreateVectorSplat should be patched too)
2. Updating shufflevector’s semantics to return poison element if mask is undef
Note that poison is currently lowered into UNDEF in SelDag, so codegen part is okay.
m_Undef() matches PoisonValue as well, so existing optimizations will still fire.
The only concern is hidden miscompilations that will go incorrect when poison constant is given.
A conservative way is copying all tests having `insertelement undef` & replacing it with `insertelement poison` & run Alive2 on it, but it will create many tests and people won’t like it. :(
Instead, I’ll simply locally maintain the tests and run Alive2.
If there is any bug found, I’ll report it.

As it's causing some bot failures (and per request from kbarton).
This reverts commit r358543/ab70da07286e618016e78247e4a24fcb84077fda.

There are 2 parts to this patch made simultaneously to avoid a regression.
We're reversing the canonicalization that moves bitwise vector ops before bitcasts.
We're moving bitwise vector ops *after* bitcasts instead. That's the 1st and 3rd hunks
of the patch. The motivation is that there's only one fold that currently depends on
the existing canonicalization (see next), but there are many folds that would
automatically benefit from the new canonicalization.
PR33138 ( https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=33138 ) shows why/how we have these
patterns in IR.
There's an or(and,andn) pattern that requires an adjustment in order to continue matching
to 'select' because the bitcast changes position. This match is unfortunately complicated
because it requires 4 logic ops with optional bitcast and sext ops.
Test diffs:
1. The bitcast.ll and bitcast-bigendian.ll changes show the most basic difference -
bitcast comes before logic.
2. There are also tests with no diffs in bitcast.ll that verify that we're still doing
folds that were enabled by the previous canonicalization.
3. icmp-xor-signbit.ll shows the payoff. We don't need to adjust existing icmp patterns
to look through bitcasts.
4. logical-select.ll contains several tests for the or(and,andn) --> select fold to
verify that we are still handling those cases. The lone diff shows the movement of
the bitcast from the new canonicalization rule.

insertelement (insertelement X, Y, IdxC1), ScalarC, IdxC2 -->
insertelement (insertelement X, ScalarC, IdxC2), Y, IdxC1
As noted in the code comment and seen in the test changes, the motivation is that by pulling
constant insertion up, we may be able to constant fold some insertelement instructions.

Given that we're not actually reducing the instruction count in the included
regression tests, I think we would call this a canonicalization step.
The motivation comes from the example in PR26702:
https://llvm.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=26702
If we hoist the bitwise logic ahead of the bitcast, the previously unoptimizable
example of:
define <4 x i32> @is_negative(<4 x i32> %x) {
%lobit = ashr <4 x i32> %x, <i32 31, i32 31, i32 31, i32 31>
%not = xor <4 x i32> %lobit, <i32 -1, i32 -1, i32 -1, i32 -1>
%bc = bitcast <4 x i32> %not to <2 x i64>
%notnot = xor <2 x i64> %bc, <i64 -1, i64 -1>
%bc2 = bitcast <2 x i64> %notnot to <4 x i32>
ret <4 x i32> %bc2
}
Simplifies to the expected:
define <4 x i32> @is_negative(<4 x i32> %x) {
%lobit = ashr <4 x i32> %x, <i32 31, i32 31, i32 31, i32 31>
ret <4 x i32> %lobit
}

These functions used to assume that the lsb of an integer corresponds
to vector element 0, whereas for big-endian it's the other way around:
the msb is in the first element and the lsb is in the last element.
Fixes MultiSource/Benchmarks/mediabench/gsm/toast for z.
