We have a number of cases where we fail to reduce vector op widths, performing the op in a larger vector and then extracting a subvector. This is often because by default it would create illegal types.
This peephole patch attempts to handle a few common cases detailed in PR36761, which typically involved extension+conversion to vX2f64 types.

In preparation for adding support for named vregs we are changing the sigil for
physical registers in MIR to '$' from '%'. This will prevent name clashes of
named physical register with named vregs.

Summary:
Fold cases such as:
(v8i8 truncate (v8i32 extract_subvector (v16i32 sext (v16i8 V), Idx)))
->
(v8i8 extract_subvector (v16i8 V), Idx)
This can be generalized to cases where the truncate and extend do not
fully cancel each other out, but it may require querying the target
about profitability.
