We aren't going to connect the result to anything so we might
as well avoid allocating a register.

My thought process is that if v2i64 is an LMUL=1 type then v2i32
should be an LMUL=1/2 type. We limit the fractional LMUL so that
SEW=64 clips to LMUL=1, SEW=32 clips to LMUL=1/2, etc. This
ensures there's always a fractional LMUL available to truncate a type.
This does reduce the number of vsetvlis in some cases.
Some tests increase vsetvlis because the best container type for a
mask type is dependent on the LMUL+SEW that the mask was produced
from, but you can't tell that from the type. I think this is
something we need to solve this in the machine IR when optimizing
vsetvlis.

I missed a few intrinsics in 3dd4aa7d09
when I did this for masked loads and masked segment loads/stores.
Found while trying to share more code between these custom isel
functions.
