VSX D-form load/store instructions of POWER9 require the offset be a multiple of 16 and a helper`isOffsetMultipleOf` is used to check this.
So far, the helper handles FrameIndex + offset case, but not handling FrameIndex without offset case. Due to this, we are missing opportunities to exploit D-form instructions when accessing an object or array allocated on stack.
For example, x-form store (stxvx) is used for int a[4] = {0}; instead of d-form store (stxv). For larger arrays, D-form instruction is not used when accessing the first 16-byte. Using D-form instructions reduces register pressure as well as instructions.

As outlined in the PR, we didn't ensure that displacements for DQ-Form
instructions are multiples of 16. Since the instruction encoding encodes
a quad-word displacement, a sub-16 byte displacement is meaningless and
ends up being encoded incorrectly.

The new lxvx/stxvx instructions do not require the swaps to line the elements
up correctly. In order to select them over the lxvd2x/lxvw4x instructions which
require swaps, the patterns for the old instruction have a predicate that
ensures they won't be selected on Power9 and newer CPUs.
