On SystemZ, a ZERO_EXTEND of an i1 vector handled by WidenVecRes_Convert()
always ended up being scalarized, because the type action of the input is
promotion which was previously an unhandled case in this method.

Patch by Eli Friedman.
Review: Ulrich Weigand
Instead of doing multiple unpacks when zero extending vectors (e.g. v2i16 ->
v2i64), benchmarks have shown that it is better to do a VPERM (vector
permute) since that is only one sequential instruction on the critical path.
This patch achieves this by
1. Expand ZERO_EXTEND_VECTOR_INREG into a vector shuffle with a zero vector
instead of (multiple) unpacks.
2. Improve SystemZ::GeneralShuffle to perform a single unpack as the last
operation if Bytes matches it.

In case of a SIGN/ZERO_EXTEND of an incomplete vector type (using only a
partial number of available vector elements), WidenVecRes_Convert() used to
resort to scalarization.
This patch adds a handling of the (common) case where an input vector can be
found of same width as the widened result vector, by converting the node to
SIGN/ZERO_EXTEND_VECTOR_INREG.
