Recommiting after fixing X86 inc/dec chain bug.
* Simplify Consecutive Merge Store Candidate Search
Now that address aliasing is much less conservative, push through
simplified store merging search and chain alias analysis which only
checks for parallel stores through the chain subgraph. This is cleaner
as the separation of non-interfering loads/stores from the
store-merging logic.
When merging stores search up the chain through a single load, and
finds all possible stores by looking down from through a load and a
TokenFactor to all stores visited.
This improves the quality of the output SelectionDAG and the output
Codegen (save perhaps for some ARM cases where we correctly constructs
wider loads, but then promotes them to float operations which appear
but requires more expensive constant generation).
Some minor peephole optimizations to deal with improved SubDAG shapes (listed below)
Additional Minor Changes:
1. Finishes removing unused AliasLoad code
2. Unifies the chain aggregation in the merged stores across code
paths
3. Re-add the Store node to the worklist after calling
SimplifyDemandedBits.
4. Increase GatherAllAliasesMaxDepth from 6 to 18. That number is
arbitrary, but seems sufficient to not cause regressions in
tests.
5. Remove Chain dependencies of Memory operations on CopyfromReg
nodes as these are captured by data dependence
6. Forward loads-store values through tokenfactors containing
{CopyToReg,CopyFromReg} Values.
7. Peephole to convert buildvector of extract_vector_elt to
extract_subvector if possible (see
CodeGen/AArch64/store-merge.ll)
8. Store merging for the ARM target is restricted to 32-bit as
some in some contexts invalid 64-bit operations are being
generated. This can be removed once appropriate checks are
added.
This finishes the change Matt Arsenault started in r246307 and
jyknight's original patch.
Many tests required some changes as memory operations are now
reorderable, improving load-store forwarding. One test in
particular is worth noting:
CodeGen/PowerPC/ppc64-align-long-double.ll - Improved load-store
forwarding converts a load-store pair into a parallel store and
a memory-realized bitcast of the same value. However, because we
lose the sharing of the explicit and implicit store values we
must create another local store. A similar transformation
happens before SelectionDAG as well.

The vectorcall calling convention specifies that arguments to functions are to be passed in registers, when possible.
vectorcall uses more registers for arguments than fastcall or the default x64 calling convention use.
The vectorcall calling convention is only supported in native code on x86 and x64 processors that include Streaming SIMD Extensions 2 (SSE2) and above.
The current implementation does not handle Homogeneous Vector Aggregates (HVAs) correctly and this review attempts to fix it.
This aubmit also includes additional lit tests to cover better HVAs corner cases.

This is a Microsoft calling convention that supports both x86 and x86_64
subtargets. It passes vector and floating point arguments in XMM0-XMM5,
and passes them indirectly once they are consumed.
Homogenous vector aggregates of up to four elements can be passed in
sequential vector registers, but this part is not implemented in LLVM
and will be handled in Clang.
On 32-bit x86, it is similar to fastcall in that it uses ecx:edx as
integer register parameters and is callee cleanup. On x86_64, it
delegates to the normal win64 calling convention.
