This is an expensive header, only include it where needed. Move some
functions out of line to achieve that.
This reduces time to build clang by ~0.5% in terms of instructions
retired.
Currently arm_neon.h emits C-style casts to do vector type casts. This
relies on implicit conversion between vector types to be enabled, which
is currently deprecated behaviour and soon will disappear. To ensure
NEON code will keep working afterwards, this patch changes all this
vector type casts into bitcasts.

clang/lib/CodeGen/CGBuiltin.cpp is over 1MB long (>23k LoC), and can
take minutes to recompile (depending on compiler and host system) when
modified, and 5 seconds for clangd to update for every edit. Splitting
this file was discussed in this thread:
https://discourse.llvm.org/t/splitting-clang-s-cgbuiltin-cpp-over-23k-lines-long-takes-1min-to-compile/
and the idea has received a number of +1 votes, hence this change.
