This patch adds the necessary infrastructure to convert instructions that
take two register operands to those that take a register and immediate if
the necessary operand is produced by a load-immediate. Furthermore, it uses
this infrastructure to perform such conversions twice - first at MachineSSA
and then pre-emit.
There are a number of reasons we may end up with opportunities for this
transformation, including but not limited to:
- X-Form instructions chosen since the exact offset isn't available at ISEL time
- Atomic instructions with constant operands (we will add patterns for this
in the future)
- Tail duplication may duplicate code where one block contains this redundancy
- When emitting compare-free code in PPCDAGToDAGISel, we don't handle constant
comparands specially
Furthermore, this patch moves the initialization of PPCMIPeepholePass so that
it can be used for MIR tests.

If a vector index is out of bounds, the result is supposed to be
undefined but is not undefined behavior. Change the legalization
for indexing the vector on the stack so that an out of bounds
index does not create an out of bounds memory access.

Currently we have a number of tests that fail with -verify-machineinstrs.
To detect this cases earlier we add the option to the testcases with the
exception of tests that will currently fail with this option. PR 27456 keeps
track of this failures.
No code review, as discussed with Hal Finkel.

LLVM IR frequently contains bitcast operations between floating point and
integer values of the same width. Doing this through memory operations is
quite expensive on PPC. This patch allows the use of direct register moves
between FPRs and GPRs for lowering bitcasts.
