The assert that caused this to be reverted should be fixed now.
Original commit message:
This patch changes our defualt legalization behavior for 16, 32, and
64 bit vectors with i8/i16/i32/i64 scalar types from promotion to
widening. For example, v8i8 will now be widened to v16i8 instead of
promoted to v8i16. This keeps the elements widths the same and pads
with undef elements. We believe this is a better legalization strategy.
But it carries some issues due to the fragmented vector ISA. For
example, i8 shifts and multiplies get widened and then later have
to be promoted/split into vXi16 vectors.
This has the potential to cause regressions so we wanted to get
it in early in the 10.0 cycle so we have plenty of time to
address them.
Next steps will be to merge tests that explicitly test the command
line option. And then we can remove the option and its associated
code.

Expansion of SIGN_EXTEND_INREG can create a VSRAI instruction. If there is already a VSRAI after it, we should combine them into a larger VSRAI

This patch vectorizes the v2i64/v4i64 ASHR shift operations - the last remaining integer vector shifts that are still being transferred to/from the scalar unit to be completed.

While the v4i32 shl operation is already vectorized using a cvttps2dq/pmulld pattern, the lshr/ashr opeations are still scalarized.
This patch adds vectorization support for non-uniform v4i32 shift operations - it splats constant shift amounts to allow them to use the immediate sse shift instructions, or extracts/zero-extends non-constant shift amounts. The individual results are then blended together.

This patch ensures that SHL/SRL/SRA shifts for i8 and i16 vectors avoid scalarization. It builds on the existing i8 SHL vectorized implementation of moving the shift bits up to the sign bit position and separating the 4, 2 & 1 bit shifts with several improvements:
1 - SSE41 targets can use (v)pblendvb directly with the sign bit instead of performing a comparison to feed into a VSELECT node.
2 - pre-SSE41 targets were masking + comparing with an 0x80 constant - we avoid this by using the fact that a set sign bit means a negative integer which can be compared against zero to then feed into VSELECT, avoiding the need for a constant mask (zero generation is much cheaper).
3 - SRA i8 needs to be unpacked to the upper byte of a i16 so that the i16 psraw instruction can be correctly used for sign extension - we have to do more work than for SHL/SRL but perf tests indicate that this is still beneficial.
The i16 implementation is similar but simpler than for i8 - we have to do 8, 4, 2 & 1 bit shifts but less shift masking is involved. SSE41 use of (v)pblendvb requires that the i16 shift amount is splatted to both bytes however.
Tested on SSE2, SSE41 and AVX machines.

The code in getTypeConversion attempts to promote the element vector type
before it trys to split or widen the vector.
After it failed finding a legal vector type by promoting it would continue using
the promoted vector element type. Thereby missing legal splitted vector types.
For example the type v32i32 that has a legal split of 4 x v3i32 on x86/sse2
would be transformed to: v32i256 and from there on successively split to:
v16i256, v8i256, v1i256 and then finally ends up as an i64 type.
By resetting the vector element type to the original vector element type that
existed before the promotion the code will attempt to split the vector type to
smaller vector widths of the same type.

SSE2 has efficient support for shifts by a scalar. My previous change of making
shifts expensive did not take this into account marking all shifts as expensive.
This would prevent vectorization from happening where it is actually beneficial.
With this change we differentiate between shifts of constants and other shifts.

The default logic does not correctly identify costs of casts because they are
marked as custom on x86.
For some cases, where the shift amount is a scalar we would be able to generate
better code. Unfortunately, when this is the case the value (the splat) will get
hoisted out of the loop, thereby making it invisible to ISel.
