Summary:
This allows it to fold pshufd instructions across intervening
half-shuffles and other noise. This pattern actually shows up in the
generic lowering tests, but I've also added direct tests using
intrinsics to make sure that the specific desired functionality is
working even if the lowering stuff changes in the future.

half-shuffles, even looking through intervening instructions in a chain.
Summary:
This doesn't happen to show up with any test cases I've found for the current
shuffle lowering, but previous attempts would benefit from this and it seems
generally useful. I've tested it directly using intrinsics, which also shows
that it will work with hand vectorized code as well.
Note that even though pshufd isn't directly used in these tests, it gets
exercised because we combine some of the half shuffles into a pshufd
first, and then merge them.
