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".

An identity COPY like this:
%AL = COPY %AL, %EAX<imp-def>
has no semantic effect, but encodes liveness information: Further users
of %EAX only depend on this instruction even though it does not define
the full register.
Replace the COPY with a KILL instruction in those cases to maintain this
liveness information. (This reverts a small part of r238588 but this
time adds a comment explaining why a KILL instruction is useful).

This re-applies r268760, reverted in r268794.
Fixes http://llvm.org/PR27670
The original imp-defs assertion was way overzealous: forward all
implicit operands, except imp-defs of the new super-reg def (r268787
for GR64, but also possible for GR16->GR32), or imp-uses of the new
super-reg use.
While there, mark the source use as Undef, and add an imp-use of the
old source reg: that should cover any case of dead super-regs.
At the stage the pass runs, flags are unlikely to matter anyway;
still, let's be as correct as possible.
Also add MIR tests for the various interesting cases.
Original commit message:
Codesize is less (16) or equal (8), and we avoid partial
dependencies.

xor/and/or (bitcast(A), bitcast(B)) -> bitcast(op (A,B)) was only being combined at the AfterLegalizeTypes stage, this patch permits the combine to occur anytime before then as well.
The main aim with this to improve the ability to recognise bitmasks that can be converted to shuffles.
I had to modify a number of AVX512 mask tests as the basic bitcast to/from scalar pattern was being stripped out, preventing testing of the mmask bitops. By replacing the bitcasts with loads we can get almost the same result.

Essentially the same as the GEP change in r230786.
A similar migration script can be used to update test cases, though a few more
test case improvements/changes were required this time around: (r229269-r229278)
import fileinput
import sys
import re
pat = re.compile(r"((?:=|:|^)\s*load (?:atomic )?(?:volatile )?(.*?))(| addrspace\(\d+\) *)\*($| *(?:%|@|null|undef|blockaddress|getelementptr|addrspacecast|bitcast|inttoptr|\[\[[a-zA-Z]|\{\{).*$)")
for line in sys.stdin:
sys.stdout.write(re.sub(pat, r"\1, \2\3*\4", line))
