If we promote the ABS and then Expand in LegalizeDAG, then both the
sra and the xor will have their inputs sign extended. This generates
extra code on RISCV which lacks an i8 or i16 sign extend instructon.
If we expand during type legalization, then only the sra will get its
input sign extended. RISCV is able to combine this with the sra by
doing a shift left followed by an sra.

Previous we used sra (X, size(X)-1); xor (add (X, Y), Y).
By placing sub at the end, we allow RISCV to combine sign_extend_inreg
with it to form subw.
Some X86 tests for Z - abs(X) seem to have improved as well.
Other targets look to be a wash.
I had to modify ARM's abs matching code to match from sub instead of
xor. Maybe instead ISD::ABS should be made legal. I'll try that in
parallel to this patch.
This is an alternative to D119099 which was focused on RISCV only.

The data layout strings do not have any effect on llc tests and will become
misleadingly out of date as we continue to update the canonical data layout, so
remove them from the tests.
