This is a simple patch that updates InstSimplify to return poison if the index is/can be out-of-bounds

Currently undef is used as a don’t-care vector when constructing a vector using a series of insertelement.
However, this is problematic because undef isn’t undefined enough.
Especially, a sequence of insertelement can be optimized to shufflevector, but using undef as its placeholder makes shufflevector a poison-blocking instruction because undef cannot be optimized to poison.
This makes a few straightforward optimizations incorrect, such as:
```
; https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=44185
define <4 x float> @insert_not_undef_shuffle_translate_commute(float %x, <4 x float> %y, <4 x float> %q) {
%xv = insertelement <4 x float> %q, float %x, i32 2
%r = shufflevector <4 x float> %y, <4 x float> %xv, <4 x i32> { 0, 6, 2, undef }
ret <4 x float> %r ; %r[3] is undef
}
=>
define <4 x float> @insert_not_undef_shuffle_translate_commute(float %x, <4 x float> %y, <4 x float> %q) {
%r = insertelement <4 x float> %y, float %x, i32 1
ret <4 x float> %r ; %r[3] = %y[3], incorrect if %y[3] = poison
}
Transformation doesn't verify!
ERROR: Target is more poisonous than source
```
I’d like to suggest
1. Using poison as insertelement’s placeholder value (IRBuilder::CreateVectorSplat should be patched too)
2. Updating shufflevector’s semantics to return poison element if mask is undef
Note that poison is currently lowered into UNDEF in SelDag, so codegen part is okay.
m_Undef() matches PoisonValue as well, so existing optimizations will still fire.
The only concern is hidden miscompilations that will go incorrect when poison constant is given.
A conservative way is copying all tests having `insertelement undef` & replacing it with `insertelement poison` & run Alive2 on it, but it will create many tests and people won’t like it. :(
Instead, I’ll simply locally maintain the tests and run Alive2.
If there is any bug found, I’ll report it.

As it's causing some bot failures (and per request from kbarton).
This reverts commit r358543/ab70da07286e618016e78247e4a24fcb84077fda.

In one case, we were handling out of bounds, but not undef indices. In the other, we were handling undef (with the comment making the analogy to out of bounds), but not out of bounds. Be consistent and treat both undef and constant out of bounds indices as producing undefined results.
As a side effect, this also protects instcombine from having to handle large constant indices as we always simplify first.

As noted in the code comment and seen in the test changes, the motivation is that by pulling
constant insertion up, we may be able to constant fold some insertelement instructions.

If inserting more than one constant into a vector:
define <4 x float> @foo(<4 x float> %x) {
%ins1 = insertelement <4 x float> %x, float 1.0, i32 1
%ins2 = insertelement <4 x float> %ins1, float 2.0, i32 2
ret <4 x float> %ins2
}
InstCombine could reduce that to a shufflevector:
define <4 x float> @goo(<4 x float> %x) {
%shuf = shufflevector <4 x float> %x, <4 x float> <float undef, float 1.0, float 2.0, float undef>, <4 x i32><i32 0, i32 5, i32 6, i32 3>
ret <4 x float> %shuf
}
Also, InstCombine tries to convert shuffle instruction to single insertelement, if one of the vectors is a constant vector and only a single element from this constant should be used in shuffle, i.e.
shufflevector <4 x float> %v, <4 x float> <float undef, float 1.0, float
undef, float undef>, <4 x i32> <i32 0, i32 5, i32 undef, i32 undef> ->
insertelement <4 x float> %v, float 1.0, 1
