This is a continuation of my patches to inform the X86 backend about what the largest IR types are in the function so that we can restrict the backend type legalizer to prevent 512-bit vectors on SKX when -mprefer-vector-width=256 is specified if no explicit 512 bit vectors were specified by the user.
This patch updates the vector width based on the argument and return types of the current function and from the types of any functions it calls. This is intended to make sure the backend type legalizer doesn't disturb any types that are required for ABI.

Amongst other, this will help LTO to correctly handle/honor files
compiled with O0, helping debugging failures.
It also seems in line with how we handle other options, like how
-fnoinline adds the appropriate attribute as well.

This is mostly a one-time autoconversion of tests that checked assembly after
"-Owhatever" compiles to only run "opt -mem2reg" and check the assembly. This
should make them much more stable to changes in LLVM so they won't break on
unrelated changes.
"opt -mem2reg" is a compromise designed to increase the readability of tests
that check dataflow, while minimizing dependency on LLVM. Hopefully mem2reg is
stable enough that no surpises will come along.
Should address http://llvm.org/PR26815.
