parsing (and latent bug in the instruction definitions).
This is effectively a revert of r136287 which tried to address
a specific and narrow case of immediate operands failing to be accepted
by x86 instructions with a pretty heavy hammer: it introduced a new kind
of operand that behaved differently. All of that is removed with this
commit, but the test cases are both preserved and enhanced.
The core problem that r136287 and this commit are trying to handle is
that gas accepts both of the following instructions:
insertps $192, %xmm0, %xmm1
insertps $-64, %xmm0, %xmm1
These will encode to the same byte sequence, with the immediate
occupying an 8-bit entry. The first form was fixed by r136287 but that
broke the prior handling of the second form! =[ Ironically, we would
still emit the second form in some cases and then be unable to
re-assemble the output.
The reason why the first instruction failed to be handled is because
prior to r136287 the operands ere marked 'i32i8imm' which forces them to
be sign-extenable. Clearly, that won't work for 192 in a single byte.
However, making thim zero-extended or "unsigned" doesn't really address
the core issue either because it breaks negative immediates. The correct
fix is to make these operands 'i8imm' reflecting that they can be either
signed or unsigned but must be 8-bit immediates. This patch backs out
r136287 and then changes those places as well as some others to use
'i8imm' rather than one of the extended variants.
Naturally, this broke something else. The custom DAG nodes had to be
updated to have a much more accurate type constraint of an i8 node, and
a bunch of Pat immediates needed to be specified as i8 values.
The fallout didn't end there though. We also then ceased to be able to
match the instruction-specific intrinsics to the instructions so
modified. Digging, this is because they too used i32 rather than i8 in
their signature. So I've also switched those intrinsics to i8 arguments
in line with the instructions.
In order to make the intrinsic adjustments of course, I also had to add
auto upgrading for the intrinsics.
I suspect that the intrinsic argument types may have led everything down
this rabbit hole. Pretty happy with the result.

instructions in the legalized DAG, and leverage it to combine long
sequences of instructions to PSHUFB.
Eventually, the other x86-instruction-specific shuffle combines will
probably all be driven out of this routine. But the real motivation is
to detect after we have fully legalized and optimized a shuffle to the
minimal number of x86 instructions whether it is profitable to replace
the chain with a fully generic PSHUFB instruction even though doing so
requires either a load from a constant pool or tying up a register with
the mask.
While the Intel manuals claim it should be used when it replaces 5 or
more instructions (!!!!) my experience is that it is actually very fast
on modern chips, and so I've gon with a much more aggressive model of
replacing any sequence of 3 or more instructions.
I've also taught it to do some basic canonicalization to special-purpose
instructions which have smaller encodings than their generic
counterparts.
There are still quite a few FIXMEs here, and I've not yet implemented
support for lowering blends with PSHUFB (where its power really shines
due to being able to zero out lanes), but this starts implementing real
PSHUFB support even when using the new, fancy shuffle lowering. =]

The corresponding CFE patch replaces these intrinsics with vector initializers
in avxintrin.h. This patch removes the LLVM intrinsics from the backend.
We now stop lowering at X86ISD::VBROADCAST custom node rather than lowering
that further to the intrinsics.
The patch only changes VBROADCASTS* and leaves VBROADCAST[FI]128 to continue
to use intrinsics. As explained in the CFE patch, the reason is that we
currently don't generate as good code for them without the intrinsics.
CodeGen/X86/avx-vbroadcast.ll already provides coverage for this change. It
checks that for a series of insertelements we generate the appropriate
vbroadcast instruction.
Also verified that there was no assembly change in the test-suite before and
after this patch.

DomainValues that are only used by "don't care" instructions are now
collapsed to the first possible execution domain after all basic blocks
have been processed. This typically means the PS domain on x86.
For example, the vsel_i64 and vsel_double functions in sse2-blend.ll are
completely collapsed to the PS domain instead of containing a mix of
execution domains created by isel.

Now that we have a first-class way to represent unaligned loads, the unaligned
load intrinsics are superfluous.
