When combiner AA is enabled, look at stores on the same chain.
Non-aliasing stores are moved to the same chain so the existing
code fails because it expects to find an adajcent store on a consecutive
chain.
Because of how DAGCombiner tries these store combines,
MergeConsecutiveStores doesn't see the correct set of stores on the chain
when it visits the other stores. Each store individually has its chain
fixed before trying to merge consecutive stores, and then tries to merge
stores from that point before the other stores have been processed to
have their chains fixed. To fix this, attempt to use FindBetterChain
on any possibly neighboring stores in visitSTORE.
Suppose you have 4 32-bit stores that should be merged into 1 vector
store. One store would be visited first, fixing the chain. What happens is
because not all of the store chains have yet been fixed, 2 of the stores
are merged. The other 2 stores later have their chains fixed,
but because the other stores were already merged, they have different
memory types and merging the two different sized stores is not
supported and would be more difficult to handle.

When using Altivec, we can use vector loads and stores for aligned memcpy and
friends. Starting with the P7 and VXS, we have reasonable unaligned vector
stores. Starting with the P8, we have fast unaligned loads too.
For QPX, we use vector loads are stores, but only for aligned memory accesses.
