It's less clear with scalable vectors than fixed length vectors that
interleaving exposes more ILP, as scalable vectors can be thought of a
sort of hardware form of interleaving, especially with larger LMULs.
This also addresses the unexpected additional unrolling that occurs when
using larger LMULs in the loop vectorizer.

Fixed issue where 'ConstantInt::get(IndextTy, -Part)' was executed with the wrong type for Part,
e.g. IndexTy was i64, but Part was 'unsigned', which led to things like 'mul i64 .., 4294967292',
which was obviously wrong.
Also changed sve-vector-reverse.ll to be vectorized with UF>1 to test this.
This reverts commit 1f01cdda68614dba12af3cc3aff38541d0abcc6b.
This is specifically relevant for loops that vectorize using a scalable VF,
where the code results in:
%vscale = call i32 llvm.vscale.i32()
%vf.part1 = mul i32 %vscale, 4
%gep = getelementptr ..., i32 %vf.part1
Which InstCombine then changes into:
%vscale = call i32 llvm.vscale.i32()
%vf.part1 = mul i32 %vscale, 4
%vf.part1.zext = sext i32 %vf.part1 to i64
%gep = getelementptr ..., i32 %vf.part1.zext
D143016 tried to remove these extends, but that only works when
the call to llvm.vscale.i32() has a single use. After doing any
kind of CSE on these calls the combine no longer kicks in.
It seems more sensible to ask DataLayout what type to use, rather
than relying on InstCombine to insert the extend and hoping it can
fold it away.
I've only changed this for indices that are not constant, because
I vaguely remember there was a reason for sticking with i32. It
would also mean patching up loads more tests.
