Add simple pass for removing redundant vsetvli instructions within a basic block. This handles the case where the AVL register and VTYPE immediate are the same and no other instructions that change VTYPE or VL are between them.
There are going to be more opportunities for improvement in this space as we development more complex tests.

The compiler is making no effort to preserve upper elements. To do so would require another source operand tied with the destination and a different intrinsic interface to give control of this source to the programmer.
This patch changes the tail policy to agnostic so that the CPU doesn't need to make an effort to preserve them.
This is consistent with the RVV intrinsic spec here https://github.com/riscv/rvv-intrinsic-doc/blob/master/rvv-intrinsic-rfc.md#configuration-setting

The companion RFC (http://lists.llvm.org/pipermail/llvm-dev/2020-October/145850.html) gives lots of details on the overall strategy, but we summarize it here:
LLVM IR involving vector types is going to be selected using pseudo instructions (only MachineInstr). These pseudo instructions contain dummy operands to represent the vector type being operated and the vector length for the operation.
These two dummy operands, as set by instruction selection, will be used by the custom inserter to prepend every operation with an appropriate vsetvli instruction that ensures the vector architecture is properly configured for the operation. Not in this patch: later passes will remove the redundant vsetvli instructions.
Register classes of tuples of vector registers are used to represent vector register groups (LMUL > 1).
Those pseudos are eventually lowered into the actual instructions when emitting the MCInsts.
About the patch:
Because there is a bit of initial infrastructure required, this is the minimal patch that allows us to select instructions for 3 LLVM IR instructions: load, add and store vectors of integers. LLVM IR operations have "whole-vector" semantics (as in they generate values for all the elements).
Later patches will extend the information represented in TableGen.
