This changes the default value used for mask policy from mask undisturbed to mask agnostic. In hardware, there may be a minor preference for ta/ma, but since this is only going to apply to instructions which don't use the mask policy bit, this is functionally mostly a nop. The main value is to make future changes to using MA when legal for masked instructions easier to review by reducing test churn.
The prior code was motivated by a desire to minimize state transitions between masked and unmasked code. This patch achieves the same effect using the demanded field logic (landed in afb45ff), and there are no regressions I spotted in the test diffs. (Given the size, I have only been able to skim.) I do want to call out that regressions are possible here; the demanded analysis only works on a block local scope right now, so e.g. a tight loop mixing masked and unmasked computation might see an extra vsetvli or two.

RVV doesn't have immediate field for memory addressing. Currently
we build MachineInstructions in PEI to computing stack offset for
RVV load store instructions. These instructions were added too late to
can be optimized by CSE, LICM... passes.
This patch makes FrameIndex SDNodes can't be matched in RVV Load Store
instruction selection patterns. So that the FrameIndex SDNodes would be
selected as `ADDI GPR, targetframeindex`.
There are 2 advantages for such change:
1. Stack objects address computing can be optimized by machine function
passes.
2. Since the ADDI instruction's destination register can be used as a
temp register, we can save an emergency spill slot.

For large integers (for example, magic numbers generated by
TargetLowering::BuildSDIV when dividing by constant), we may
need about 4~8 instructions to build them.
In the same time, it just takes two instructions to load
constants (with extra cycles to access memory), so it may be
profitable to put these integers into constant pool.

Add an alias of `addi [x], zero, imm` to generate pseudo
instruction li, which makes assembly mush more readable.
For existed tests, users can update them by running script
`llvm/utils/update_llc_test_checks.py`.
