We recently discovered an issue that reinforces what a good idea it is
to always specify -mcpu in our code generation tests, particularly for
-mattr=+vsx. This patch ensures that all tests that specify
-mattr=+vsx also specify -mcpu=pwr7 or -mcpu=pwr8, as appropriate.
Some of the uses of -mattr=+vsx added recently don't make much sense
(when specified for -mtriple=powerpc-apple-darwin8 or -march=ppc32,
for example). For cases like this I've just removed the extra VSX
test commands; there's enough coverage without them.

Patch by Bill Seurer; committed on his behalf.
These test cases generate slightly different code sequences when VSX
is activated and thus fail. The update turns off VSX explicitly for
the existing checks and then adds a second set of checks for most of
them that test the VSX instruction output.

On PowerPC, a bitcast of <16 x i8> to i128 may run through a code
path in ExpandRes_BITCAST that attempts to do an intermediate
bitcast to a <4 x i32> vector, and then construct the Hi and Lo parts
of the resulting i128 by pairing up two of those i32 vector elements
each. The code already recognizes that on a big-endian system, the
first two vector elements form the Hi part, and the final two vector
elements form the Lo part (vice-versa from the little-endian situation).
However, we also need to take endianness into account when forming each
of those separate pairs: on a big-endian system, vector element 0 is
the *high* part of the pair making up the Hi part of the result, and
vector element 1 is the low part of the pair. The code currently always
uses vector element 0 as the low part and vector element 1 as the high
part, as is appropriate for little-endian platforms only.
This patch fixes this by swapping the vector elements as they are
paired up as appropriate.
