MVE has native reductions for integer add and min/max. The others need
to be expanded to a series of extract's and scalar operators to reduce
the vector into a single scalar. The default codegen for that expands
the reduction into a series of in-order operations.
This modifies that to something more suitable for MVE. The basic idea is
to use vector operations until there are 4 remaining items then switch
to pairwise operations. For example a v8f16 fadd reduction would become:
Y = VREV X
Z = ADD(X, Y)
z0 = Z[0] + Z[1]
z1 = Z[2] + Z[3]
return z0 + z1
The awkwardness (there is always some) comes in from something like a
v4f16, which is first legalized by adding identity values to the extra
lanes of the reduction, and which can then not be optimized away through
the vrev; fadd combo, the inserts remain. I've made sure they custom
lower so that we can produce the pairwise additions before the extra
values are added.

Summary:
Half-precision floating point arguments and returns are currently
promoted to either float or int32 in clang's CodeGen and there's
no existing support for the lowering of `half` arguments and returns
from IR in AArch32's backend.
Such frontend coercions, implemented as coercion through memory
in clang, can cause a series of issues in argument lowering, as causing
arguments to be stored on the wrong bits on big-endian architectures
and incurring in missing overflow detections in the return of certain
functions.
This patch introduces the handling of half-precision arguments and returns in
the backend using the actual "half" type on the IR. Using the "half"
type the backend is able to properly enforce the AAPCS' directions for
those arguments, making sure they are stored on the proper bits of the
registers and performing the necessary floating point convertions.

Unlike Neon, MVE does not have a way of duplicating from a vector lane,
so a VDUPLANE currently selects to a VDUP(move_from_lane(..)). This
forces that to be done earlier as a dag combine to allow other folds to
happen.
It converts to a VDUP(EXTRACT). On FP16 this is then folded to a
VGETLANEu to prevent it from creating a vmovx;vmovhr pair, using a
single move_from_reg instead.

Printing floating point number in decimal is inconvenient for humans.
Verbose asm output will print out floating point values in comments, it
helps.
But in lots of cases, users still need additional work to covert the
decimal back to hex or binary to check the bit patterns,
especially when there are small precision difference.
Hexadecimal form is one of the supported form in LLVM IR, and easier for
debugging.
This patch try to print all FP constant in hex form instead.

Under MVE, we do not have any lowering for fminimum, which a
vector_reduce_fmin without NoNan will be expanded into. As with the
other recent patches, force this to expand in the pre-isel pass. Note
that Neon lowering would be OK because the scalar fminimum uses the
vector VMIN instruction, but is probably better to just rely on the
scalar operations, which is what is done here.
Also fixes what appears to be the reversal of INF vs -INF in the
vector_reduce_fmin widening code.
