The scalarization overhead was set deliberately high for MVE, whilst the
codegen was new. It helps protect us against the negative ramifications
of mixing scalar and vector instructions. This decreases that,
especially for floating point where the cost of extracting/inserting
lane elements can be low. For integer the cost is still fairly high due
to the cross-register-bank copy, but is no longer n^2 in the length of
the vector.
In general, this will decrease the cost of scalarizing floats and long
integer vectors. i64 increase in cost, having a high cost before and
after this patch. For floats this allows up to start doing things like
vectorizing fdiv instructions, even if they are scalarized.

We currently collect the ICmp and Add from an induction variable,
marking them as dead so that vplan values are not created for them. This
extends that to include any single use trunk from the ICmp, which allows
the Add to more readily be removed too.
This can help with costing vplan nodes, as the ICmp and Add are more
reliably removed and are not double-counted.

As part of D84741, this adds a target hook for the
preferPredicatedReductionSelect option and makes use
of it under MVE, allowing us to tail predicate most
reduction loops.

It was getting difficult to see which test was in which file, so this
reorganises the test files so that now all filenames start with tail-folding-*
followed by a more descriptive name what that group of tests check.
