This is an updated version of Chandler's patch D7402 that got accepted but never committed, and has bit-rotted a bit since.
I've updated the execution domain declarations to match the approach of the packed templates and also added some extra scalar unary tests.

This takes the preposterous number of patterns in this section
that were last added to in r219033 down to just plain obnoxious.
With a little more work, we might get this down to just comical.
I've added more test cases to the existing file that checks these
patterns, but it seems that some of these patterns simply don't
exist with today's shuffle lowering.
llvm-svn: 229158
Update the entire regression test suite for the new shuffles. Remove
most of the old testing which was devoted to the old shuffle lowering
path and is no longer relevant really. Also remove a few other random
tests that only really exercised shuffles and only incidently or without
any interesting aspects to them.
Benchmarking that I have done shows a few small regressions with this on
LNT, zero measurable regressions on real, large applications, and for
several benchmarks where the loop vectorizer fires in the hot path it
shows 5% to 40% improvements for SSE2 and SSE3 code running on Sandy
Bridge machines. Running on AMD machines shows even more dramatic
improvements.
When using newer ISA vector extensions the gains are much more modest,
but the code is still better on the whole. There are a few regressions
being tracked (PR21137, PR21138, PR21139) but by and large this is
expected to be a win for x86 generated code performance.
It is also more correct than the code it replaces. I have fuzz tested
this extensively with ISA extensions up through AVX2 and found no
crashes or miscompiles (yet...). The old lowering had a few miscompiles
and crashers after a somewhat smaller amount of fuzz testing.
There is one significant area where the new code path lags behind and
that is in AVX-512 support. However, there was *extremely little*
support for that already and so this isn't a significant step backwards
and the new framework will probably make it easier to implement lowering
that uses the full power of AVX-512's table-based shuffle+blend (IMO).
Many thanks to Quentin, Andrea, Robert, and others for benchmarking
assistance. Thanks to Adam and others for help with AVX-512. Thanks to
Hal, Eric, and *many* others for answering my incessant questions about
how the backend actually works. =]
I will leave the old code path in the tree until the 3 PRs above are at
least resolved to folks' satisfaction. Then I will rip it (and 1000s of
lines of code) out. =] I don't expect this flag to stay around for very
long. It may not survive next week.

the various ways in which blends can be used to do vector element
insertion for lowering with the scalar math instruction forms that
effectively re-blend with the high elements after performing the
operation.
This then allows me to bail on the element insertion lowering path when
we have SSE4.1 and are going to be doing a normal blend, which in turn
restores the last of the blends lost from the new vector shuffle
lowering when I got it to prioritize insertion in other cases (for
example when we don't *have* a blend instruction).
Without the patterns, using blends here would have regressed
sse-scalar-fp-arith.ll *completely* with the new vector shuffle
lowering. For completeness, I've added RUN-lines with the new lowering
here. This is somewhat superfluous as I'm about to flip the default, but
hey, it shows that this actually significantly changed behavior.
The patterns I've added are just ridiculously repetative. Suggestions on
making them better very much welcome. In particular, handling the
commuted form of the v2f64 patterns is somewhat obnoxious.

I got them quite wrong when updating it and had the SSE4.1 run checked
for SSE2 and the SSE2 run checked for SSE4.1. I think everything was
actually generic SSE, but this still seems good to fix. While here,
hoist the triple into the IR and make the flag set a bit more direct in
what it is trying to test.

immediately after SSE scalar fp instructions like addss or mulss.
Added patterns to select SSE scalar fp arithmetic instructions from a scalar
fp operation followed by a blend.
For example, given the following code:
__m128 foo(__m128 A, __m128 B) {
A[0] += B[0];
return A;
}
previously we generated:
addss %xmm0, %xmm1
movss %xmm1, %xmm0
now we generate:
addss %xmm1, %xmm0
