The comment says this was stopped because it was unlikely to be
profitable. This is not true if you want to combine vector loads
with multiple components.
For a simple case that looks like
t0 = load t0 ...
t1 = load t0 ...
t2 = load t0 ...
t3 = load t0 ...
t4 = store t0:1, t0:1
t5 = store t4, t1:0
t6 = store t5, t2:0
t7 = store t6, t3:0
We want to get all of these stores onto a chain
that is a TokenFactor of these N loads. This mostly
solves the AMDGPU merge-stores.ll regressions
with -combiner-alias-analysis for merging vector
stores of vector loads.

If storing multiple FP constants, some subset of the stores
would be replaced with integers due to visit order, so
MergeConsecutiveStores would only partially merge
these.

Summary:
This helps mostly when we use add instructions for address calculations
that contain immediates.

Reapply r239539. Don't assume the collected number of
stores is the same vector size. Just take the first N
stores to fill the vector.
