vector shift by immedate count (VSHLI/VSRLI/VSRAI) into a build_vector when
the vector in input to the shift is a build_vector of all constants or UNDEFs.
Target specific nodes for packed shifts by immediate count are in
general introduced by function 'getTargetVShiftByConstNode' (in
X86ISelLowering.cpp) when lowering shift operations, SSE/AVX immediate
shift intrinsics and (only in very few cases) SIGN_EXTEND_INREG dag
nodes.
This patch adds extra rules for simplifying vector shifts inside
function 'getTargetVShiftByConstNode'.
Added file test/CodeGen/X86/vec_shift5.ll to verify that packed
shifts by immediate are correctly folded into a build_vector when the
input vector to the shift dag node is a vector of constants or undefs.
