[mlir][ArithToAMDGPU] Use native packing support (#150342)
The current arith-to-amdgpu patterns for scaling_extf and scaling_truncf
don't take full advantage of the native packing ability of the
intrinsics being targetted. Scaling extension takes the location of the
two elements to be extended as a constant argument (byte for fp4, half
for fp8), and scaling truncation takes a 32-bit input register and a
byte or half to write the truncated values to.

Not using these features would cause excess unneeded register pressure.
This PR resolves the inefficiency.

It also adds a test for the expected usecase of extending or
truncateting a block of 32 values to/from fp4 with a uniform scale to
ensure that this usage has a minimal amount of vector shuffling.
