This patch reduces code size for all AVX targets and increases speed for some chips.
SSE 4.1 introduced the useless (see code comments) 2-register form of BLENDV and
only in the packed float/double flavors.
AVX subsequently made the instruction useful by adding a 4-register operand form.
So we just need to paper over the lack of scalar forms of this instruction, complicate
the code to choose float or double forms, and use blendv on scalars since all FP is in
xmm registers anyway.
This gives us an approximately 50% speed up for a blendv microbenchmark sequence
on SandyBridge and Haswell:
blendv : 29.73 cycles/iter
logic : 43.15 cycles/iter
No new test cases with this patch because:
1. fast-isel-select-sse.ll tests the positive side for regular X86 lowering and fast-isel
2. sse-minmax.ll and fp-select-cmp-and.ll confirm that we're not firing for scalar selects without AVX
3. fp-select-cmp-and.ll and logical-load-fold.ll confirm that we're not firing for scalar selects with constants.

Summary:
Currently fast-isel-abort will only abort for regular instructions,
and just warn for function calls, terminators, function arguments.
There is already fast-isel-abort-args but nothing for calls and
terminators.
This change turns the fast-isel-abort options into an integer option,
so that multiple levels of strictness can be defined.
This will help no being surprised when the "abort" option indeed does
not abort, and enables the possibility to write test that verifies
that no intrinsics are forgotten by fast-isel.

This extends the select lowering to support floating-point selects. The
lowering depends on SSE instructions and that the conditon comes from a
floating-point compare. Under this conditions it is possible to emit an
optimized instruction sequence that doesn't require any branches to
simulate the select.
