This patch splits the existing SveVectorBits LangOpt into VScaleMin and
VScaleMax LangOpts such that we can represent such an option. The cc1
option has also been split into -mvscale-{min,max}=<n> options so that the
cc1 arguments better reflect the vscale_range IR attribute.

According to https://godbolt.org/z/q5rME1naY and acle, we found that
there are different SVE conversion behaviours between clang and gcc. It turns
out that llvm does not handle SVE predicates width properly.
This patch 1) checks SVE predicates width rightly with svbool_t type.
2) removes warning on svbool_t VLST <-> VLAT/GNUT conversion.
3) disables VLST <-> VLAT/GNUT conversion between SVE vectors and predicates
due to different width.

This commit prevents warnings from -Wconversion when a clang vector type
is implicitly converted to a sizeless builtin type -- for example, when
implicitly converting a fixed-predicate to a scalable predicate.
The code below:
1 #include <arm_sve.h>
2
3 #define N __ARM_FEATURE_SVE_BITS
4 #define FIXED_ATTR __attribute__((arm_sve_vector_bits (N)))
5 typedef svbool_t fixed_svbool_t FIXED_ATTR;
6
7 inline fixed_svbool_t foo(fixed_svbool_t p) {
8 return svnot_z(svptrue_b64(), p);
9 }
would previously raise this warning:
warning: implicit conversion turns vector to scalar: \
'fixed_svbool_t' (vector of 8 'unsigned char' values) to 'svbool_t' \
(aka '__SVBool_t') [-Wconversion]
Note that many cases of these implicit conversions were already
permitted because many functions inside arm_sve.h are spawned via
preprocessor macros, and the call to isInSystemMacro would cover us in
this case. This commit fixes the remaining cases.

This patch adds support for implicit casting between GNU vectors and SVE
vectors when `__ARM_FEATURE_SVE_BITS==N`, as defined by the Arm C
Language Extensions (ACLE, version 00bet5, section 3.7.3.3) for SVE [1].
This behavior makes it possible to use GNU vectors with ACLE functions
that operate on VLAT. For example:
typedef int8_t vec __attribute__((vector_size(32)));
vec f(vec x) { return svasrd_x(svptrue_b8(), x, 1); }
Tests are also added for implicit casting between GNU and fixed-length
SVE vectors created by the 'arm_sve_vector_bits' attribute. This
behavior makes it possible to use VLST with existing interfaces that
operate on GNUT. For example:
typedef int8_t vec1 __attribute__((vector_size(32)));
void f(vec1);
#if __ARM_FEATURE_SVE_BITS==256 && __ARM_FEATURE_SVE_VECTOR_OPERATORS
typedef svint8_t vec2 __attribute__((arm_sve_vector_bits(256)));
void g(vec2 x) { f(x); } // OK
#endif
The `__ARM_FEATURE_SVE_VECTOR_OPERATORS` feature macro indicates
interoperability with the GNU vector extension. This is the first patch
providing support for this feature, which once complete will be enabled
by the `-msve-vector-bits` flag, as the `__ARM_FEATURE_SVE_BITS` feature
currently is.

The __ARM_FEATURE_SVE_BITS feature macro is specified in the Arm C
Language Extensions (ACLE) for SVE [1] (version 00bet5). From the spec,
where __ARM_FEATURE_SVE_BITS==N:
When N is nonzero, indicates that the implementation is generating
code for an N-bit SVE target and that the arm_sve_vector_bits(N)
attribute is available.
This was defined in D83550 as __ARM_FEATURE_SVE_BITS_EXPERIMENTAL and
enabled under the -msve-vector-bits flag to simplify initial tests.
This patch drops _EXPERIMENTAL now there is support for the feature.

This patch implements the semantics for the 'arm_sve_vector_bits' type
attribute, defined by the Arm C Language Extensions (ACLE) for SVE [1].
The purpose of this attribute is to define vector-length-specific (VLS)
versions of existing vector-length-agnostic (VLA) types.
The semantics were already implemented by D83551, although the
implementation approach has since changed to represent VLSTs as
VectorType in the AST and fixed-length vectors in the IR everywhere
except in function args/returns. This is described in the prototype
patch D85128 demonstrating the new approach.
The semantic changes added in D83551 are changed since the
AttributedType is replaced by VectorType in the AST. Minimal changes
were necessary in the previous patch as the canonical type for both VLA
and VLS was the same (i.e. sizeless), except in constructs such as
globals and structs where sizeless types are unsupported. This patch
reverts the changes that permitted VLS types that were represented as
sizeless types in such circumstances, and adds support for implicit
casting between VLA <-> VLS types as described in section 3.7.3.2 of the
ACLE.
Since the SVE builtin types for bool and uint8 are both represented as
BuiltinType::UChar in VLSTs, two new vector kinds are implemented to
distinguish predicate and data vectors.
