The zextload hook is only used to determine whether to insert a
zero_extend or any_extend for narrow types leaving a basic block.
Returning true from this hook tends to cause any load whose output
leaves the basic block to become an LWU instead of an LW.
Since we tend to prefer sexts for i32 compares on RV64, this can
cause extra sext.w instructions to be created in other basic blocks.
If we use LW instead of LWU this gives the MIR pass from D116397
a better chance of removing them.
Another option might be to teach getPreferredExtendForValue in
FunctionLoweringInfo.cpp about our preference for sign_extend of
i32 compares. That would cause SIGN_EXTEND to be chosen for any
value used by a compare instead of using the isZExtFree heuristic.
That will require code to convert from the llvm::Type* to EVT/MVT
as well as querying the type legalization actions to get the
promoted type in order to call TargetLowering::isSExtCheaperThanZExt.
That seemed like many extra steps when no other target wants it.
Though it would avoid us needing to lean on the MIR pass in some cases.

Summary: Use an `i` constraint in the test, to correctly trigger the code for
handling the `z` constraint modifier.

This allows arguments with the constraint A to be lowered to input nodes
for RISC-V, which implies a memory address stored in a register.
This patch adds the minimal amount of code required to get operands with
the right constraints to compile.

This validates and lowers arguments to inline asm nodes which have the
constraints I, J & K, with the following semantics (equivalent to GCC):
I: Any 12-bit signed immediate.
J: Immediate integer zero only.
K: Any 5-bit unsigned immediate.
