Thanks to help from Nadav and Hal, I have a more reasonable (and even
correct!) approach. This specifically penalizes the insertelement
and extractelement operations for the performance hit that will occur
on PowerPC processors.

Adds a function to target transform info to query for the cost of address
computation. The cost model analysis pass now also queries this interface.
The code in LoopVectorize adds the cost of address computation as part of the
memory instruction cost calculation. Only there, we know whether the instruction
will be scalarized or not.
Increase the penality for inserting in to D registers on swift. This becomes
necessary because we now always assume that address computation has a cost and
three is a closer value to the architecture.

Swift has a renaming dependency if we load into D subregisters. We don't have a
way of distinguishing between insertelement operations of values from loads and
other values. Therefore, we are pessimistic for now (The performance problem
showed up in example 14 of gcc-loops).

This provides a place to add customized operation cost information and
control some other target-specific IR-level transformations.
The only non-trivial logic in this checkin assigns a higher cost to
unaligned loads and stores (covered by the included test case).
