This patch fixes an invalid TypeSize->uint64_t implicit conversion in
FoldReinterpretLoadFromConst. If the size of the constant is scalable
we bail out of the optimisation for now.

Following up on 1470f94d71 (r63981173):
The result here (probably) depends on endianness. Don't bother
trying to handle this exotic case, just bail out.
This follows up on D111023 by exporting the generic "load value
from constant at given offset as given type" and using it in the
store to load forwarding code. We now need to make sure that the
load size is smaller than the store size, previously this was
implicitly ensured by ConstantFoldLoadThroughBitcast().

InstCombine performs simple forwarding from stores to loads, but
currently only handles the case where the load and store have the
same size. This extends it to also handle a store of a constant
with a larger size followed by a load with a smaller size.
This is implemented through ConstantFoldLoadThroughBitcast() which
is fairly primitive (e.g. does not allow storing a large integer
and then loading a small one), but at least can forward the first
element of a vector store. Unfortunately it seems that we currently
don't have a generic helper for "read a constant value as a different
type", it's all tangled up with other logic in either
ConstantFolding or VNCoercion.
