We need to make sure that we are sensibly dealing with vectors of types v2i64
and v2f64, even if most of the time we cannot generate native operations for
them. This mostly adds a lot of testing, plus fixes up a couple of the issues
found. And, or and xor can be legal for v2i64, and shifts combining needs a
slight fixup.

Passing a vector type over the soft-float ABI involves it being split
into four GPRs, so the first thing that has to happen at the start of
the function is to recombine those into a vector register. The ABI
types all vectors as v2f64, so we need to support BUILD_VECTOR for
that type, which I do in this patch by allowing it to be expanded in
terms of INSERT_VECTOR_ELT, and writing an ISel pattern for that in
turn. Similarly, I provide a rule for EXTRACT_VECTOR_ELT so that a
returned vector can be marshalled back into GPRs.
While I'm here, I've also added ISD::UNDEF to the list of operations
we turn back on in `setAllExpand`, because I noticed that otherwise it
gets expanded into a BUILD_VECTOR with explicit zero inputs, leading
to pointless machine instructions to zero out a vector register that's
about to have every lane overwritten of in any case.
