Extracting to the same index that we are going to insert back into
allows forming select ("blend") shuffles and enables further transforms.
Admittedly, this is a quick-fix for a more general problem that I'm
hoping to solve by adding transforms for patterns that start with an
insertelement.
But this might resolve some regressions known to be caused by the
extract-extract transform (although I have not gotten more details on
those yet).
In the motivating case from PR34724:
https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=34724
The combination of subsequent instcombine and codegen transforms gets us this improvement:
vmovshdup %xmm0, %xmm2 ## xmm2 = xmm0[1,1,3,3]
vhaddps %xmm1, %xmm1, %xmm4
vmovshdup %xmm1, %xmm3 ## xmm3 = xmm1[1,1,3,3]
vaddps %xmm0, %xmm2, %xmm0
vaddps %xmm1, %xmm3, %xmm1
vshufps $200, %xmm4, %xmm0, %xmm0 ## xmm0 = xmm0[0,2],xmm4[0,3]
vinsertps $177, %xmm1, %xmm0, %xmm0 ## xmm0 = zero,xmm0[1,2],xmm1[2]
-->
vmovshdup %xmm0, %xmm2 ## xmm2 = xmm0[1,1,3,3]
vhaddps %xmm1, %xmm1, %xmm1
vaddps %xmm0, %xmm2, %xmm0
vshufps $200, %xmm1, %xmm0, %xmm0 ## xmm0 = xmm0[0,2],xmm1[0,3]
