There are cases of AVX-512 instructions that have two possible encodings. This is the case with instructions that use vector registers with low indexes of 0 - 15 and do not use the zmm registers or the mask k registers.
The EVEX encoding prefix requires 4 bytes whereas the VEX prefix can take only up to 3 bytes. Consequently, using the VEX encoding for these instructions results in a code size reduction of ~2 bytes even though it is compiled with the AVX-512 features enabled.

Summary:
The index and one of the table operands can be swapped by changing the opcode to the other version. Neither of these operands are the one that can load from memory so this can't be used to increase memory folding opportunities.
We need to handle the unmasked forms and the kz forms. Since the load operand isn't being commuted we can commute the load and broadcast instructions too.

Summary:
This is needed to make the v64i8 and v32i16 types legal for the 512-bit VBMI instructions. Fixes PR30912.

Optimized lowering of BITCAST node. The BITCAST node can be replaced with COPY_TO_REG instead of KMOV.
It allows to suppress two opposite BITCAST operations and avoid redundant "movs".
