Summary:
Half-precision floating point arguments and returns are currently
promoted to either float or int32 in clang's CodeGen and there's
no existing support for the lowering of `half` arguments and returns
from IR in AArch32's backend.
Such frontend coercions, implemented as coercion through memory
in clang, can cause a series of issues in argument lowering, as causing
arguments to be stored on the wrong bits on big-endian architectures
and incurring in missing overflow detections in the return of certain
functions.
This patch introduces the handling of half-precision arguments and returns in
the backend using the actual "half" type on the IR. Using the "half"
type the backend is able to properly enforce the AAPCS' directions for
those arguments, making sure they are stored on the proper bits of the
registers and performing the necessary floating point convertions.

MVE doesn't have the range of shuffle instructions available in Neon. We
also cannot use the trick of cutting a difficult vector shuffle in half
to simplify things. Instead we need to be more careful about how we
lower shuffles.
This patch adds an extra combine that attempts to find "whole lane"
vmovs when lowering shuffles of smaller types. This helps us make some
shuffles a lot simpler, generating single lane movs for the parts that
can make use of it, falling back to the original shuffle for the rest.

This adds fp16 VMOVX patterns, using the same patterns as rL362482 with some
adjustments for MVE. It allows us to move fp16 registers without going into and
out of gprs.
VMOVX is able to move the top bits from a fp16 in a fp reg into the bottom bits
of another register, zeroing the rest. This can be used for odd MVE register
lanes. The top bits are not read by fp16 instructions, so no move is required
there if we are dealing with even lanes.

The VREV64 instruction is apparently unpredictable if Qd == Qm, due to the
cross-beat nature of the instruction. This adds an earlyclobber to Qd, which
seems to be the same way we deal with this on other instructions like the
write-back on loads and stores.

We need to make sure that we are sensibly dealing with vectors of types v2i64
and v2f64, even if most of the time we cannot generate native operations for
them. This mostly adds a lot of testing, plus fixes up a couple of the issues
found. And, or and xor can be legal for v2i64, and shifts combining needs a
slight fixup.

Passing a vector type over the soft-float ABI involves it being split
into four GPRs, so the first thing that has to happen at the start of
the function is to recombine those into a vector register. The ABI
types all vectors as v2f64, so we need to support BUILD_VECTOR for
that type, which I do in this patch by allowing it to be expanded in
terms of INSERT_VECTOR_ELT, and writing an ISel pattern for that in
turn. Similarly, I provide a rule for EXTRACT_VECTOR_ELT so that a
returned vector can be marshalled back into GPRs.
While I'm here, I've also added ISD::UNDEF to the list of operations
we turn back on in `setAllExpand`, because I noticed that otherwise it
gets expanded into a BUILD_VECTOR with explicit zero inputs, leading
to pointless machine instructions to zero out a vector register that's
about to have every lane overwritten of in any case.

MVE has instructions to widen as it loads, and narrow as it stores. This adds
the required patterns and legalisation to make them work including specifying
that they are legal, patterns to select them and test changes.

This patch adds necessary shuffle vector and buildvector support for ARM MVE.
It essentially adds support for VDUP, VREVs and some VMOVs, which are often
required by other code (like upcoming patches).
This mostly uses the same code from Neon that already generated
NEONvdup/NEONvduplane/NEONvrev's. These have been renamed to ARMvdup/etc and
moved to ARMInstrInfo as they are common to both architectures. Most of the
selection code seems to be applicable to both, but NEON does have some more
instructions making some parts specific.
Most code originally by David Sherwood.
