In the case where op = add, y = base_ptr, and x = offset, this
transform:
(op y, (op x, c1)) -> (op (op x, y), c1)
breaks the canonical form of add by putting the base pointer in the
second operand and the offset in the first.
This fix is important for the R600 target, because for some address
spaces the base pointer and the offset are stored in separate register
classes. The old pattern caused the ISel code for matching addressing
modes to put the base pointer and offset in the wrong register classes,
which required no-trivial code transformations to fix.

When we fold "mul ((add x, c1), c1)" -> "add ((mul x, c2), c1*c2)", we bail if (add x, c1) has multiple
users which would result in an extra add instruction.
In such cases, this patch adds a check to see if we can eliminate a multiply instruction in exchange for the extra add.
I also added the capability of doing the existing optimization with non-splatted vectors (splatted also works).
