This patch adds initial support for a pointer diff based runtime check
scheme for vectorization. This scheme requires fewer computations and
checks than the existing full overlap checking, if it is applicable.
The main idea is to only check if source and sink of a dependency are
far enough apart so the accesses won't overlap in the vector loop. To do
so, it is sufficient to compute the difference and compare it to the
`VF * UF * AccessSize`. It is sufficient to check
`(Sink - Src) <u VF * UF * AccessSize` to rule out a backwards
dependence in the vector loop with the given VF and UF. If Src >=u Sink,
there is not dependence preventing vectorization, hence the overflow
should not matter and using the ULT should be sufficient.
Note that the initial version is restricted in multiple ways:
1. Pointers must only either be read or written, by a single
instruction (this allows re-constructing source/sink for
dependences with the available information)
2. Source and sink pointers must be add-recs, with matching steps
3. The step must be a constant.
3. abs(step) == AccessSize.
Most of those restrictions can be relaxed in the future.

This adds fptosi_sat and fptoui_sat to the list of trivially
vectorizable functions, mainly so that the loop vectorizer can vectorize
the instruction. Marking them as trivially vectorizable also allows them
to be SLP vectorized, and Scalarized.
The signature of a fptosi_sat requires two type overrides
(@llvm.fptosi.sat.v2i32.v2f32), unlike other intrinsics that often only
take a single. This patch alters hasVectorInstrinsicOverloadedScalarOpd
to isVectorIntrinsicWithOverloadTypeAtArg, so that it can mark the first
operand of the intrinsic as a overloaded (but not scalar) operand.
