Commit rG934d5fa2b8672695c335deed0e19d0e777c98403 changed the vperm codegen
for cases that vperm is not replaced by xxperm, this patch is to revert that.

vperm instruction requires the data to be in the Altivec registers, if one of
the vector operands is not used after this vperm instruction then it can be
substituted by xxperm which doubles the number of available registers.

This patch changes the PowerPC backend to generate VSX load/store instructions
for all vector loads/stores on Power8 and earlier (LE) instead of VMX
load/store instructions. The reason for this change is because VMX instructions
require the vector to be 16-byte aligned. So, a vector load/store will fail with
VMX instructions if the vector is misaligned. Also, `gcc` generates VSX
instructions in this situation which allow for unaligned access but require a
swap instruction after loading/before storing. This is not an issue for BE
because we already emit VSX instructions since no swap is required. And this is
not an issue on Power9 and up since we have access to `lxv[x]`/`stxv[x]` which
allow for unaligned access and do not require swaps.
This patch also delays the VSX load/store for LE combines until after
LegalizeOps to prioritize other load/store combines.

When inserting undef into buildvectors created from shuffles of
buildvectors, we convert elements to the largest needed type. This had
the effect of converting undef into 0, which isn't needed as the
buildvector implicitly truncates and trunc(zext(undef)) == undef.

This patch includes the following updates to the load/store refactoring effort introduced in D93370:
- Update various VSX patterns that use to "force" an XForm, to instead just XForm.
This allows the ability for the patterns to compute the most optimal addressing
mode (and to produce a DForm instruction when possible)
- Update pattern and test case for the LXVD2X/STXVD2X intrinsics
- Update LIT test cases that use to use the XForm instruction to use the DForm instruction

Extend shuffle canonicalization and conversion of shuffles fed by vectorized
scalars to big endian subtargets. For big endian subtargets, loads and direct
moves of scalars into vector registers put the data in the correct element for
SCALAR_TO_VECTOR if the data type is 8 bytes wide. However, if the data type is
narrower, the value still ends up in the wrong place - althouth a different
wrong place than on little endian targets.
This patch extends the combine that keeps values where they are if they feed a
shuffle to big endian targets.

When switched to the MI scheduler for P9, the hardware is modeled as out of order.
However, inside the MI Scheduler algorithm, we still use the in-order scheduling model
as the MicroOpBufferSize isn't set. The MI scheduler take it as the hw cannot buffer
the op. So, only when all the available instructions issued, the pending instruction
could be scheduled. That is not true for our P9 hw in fact.
This patch is trying to enable the Out-of-Order scheduling model. The buffer size 44 is
picked from the P9 hw spec, and the perf test indicate that, its value won't hurt the cpu2017.
With this patch, there are 3 specs improved over 3% and 1 spec deg over 3%. The detail is as follows:
x264_r: +6.95%
cactuBSSN_r: +6.94%
lbm_r: +4.11%
xz_r: -3.85%
And the GEOMEAN for all the C/C++ spec in spec2017 is about 0.18% improved.

At present a v2i16 -> v2f64 convert is implemented by extracts to scalar,
scalar converts, and merge back into a vector. Use vector converts instead,
with the int data permuted into the proper position and extended if necessary.
