The DAG combiner logic to simplify AND masks in shift counts is invalid.
While it is true that the SystemZ shift instructions ignore all but the
low 6 bits of the shift count, it is still invalid to simplify the AND
masks while the DAG still uses the standard shift operators (which are
*not* defined to match the SystemZ instruction behavior).
Instead, this patch performs equivalent operations during instruction
selection. For completely removing the AND, this now happens via
additional DAG match patterns implemented by a multi-alternative
PatFrags. For simplifying a 32-bit AND to a 16-bit AND, the existing DAG
patterns were already mostly OK, they just needed an output XForm to
actually truncate the immediate value.
Unfortunately, the latter change also exposed a bug in TableGen: it
seems XForms are currently only handled correctly for direct operands of
the outermost operation node. This patch also fixes that bug by simply
recurring through the whole pattern. This should be NFC for all other
targets.

On SystemZ, shift and rotate instructions only use the bottom 6 bits of the shift/rotate amount.
Therefore, if the amount is ANDed with an immediate mask that has all of the bottom 6 bits set, we
can remove the AND operation entirely.
