Summary:
Currently, Legalizer aborts if it’s unable to legalize artifacts. However, it’s
possible to combine them after processing the rest of the instruction because
the legalization is likely to generate more artifacts that allow ArtifactCombiner
to combine away them.
Instead, move illegal artifacts to another list called RetryList and wait until all of the
instruction in InstList are legalized. After that, check if there is any new artifacts and
try to combine them again if that’s the case. If not, abort. The idea is similar to D59339,
but the approach is a bit different.
This patch fixes the issue described above, but the legalizer still may be unable to handle
some cases depending on when to legalize artifacts. So, in the long run, we probably need
a different legalization strategy that handles this dependency in a better way.

This is necessary for handling <3 x s16> on AMDGPU, assuming this
should be handled as 2 separate legalization actions. The alternative
would be for fewerElementsVector to handle 3->2.

AMDGPU sometimes has legal s16 and <2 x s16> operations, but all
registers are really 32-bit. An unmerge destination really should ben
widened to a 32-bit register. If widening a scalarizing vector with a
target size that matches the vector size, bitcast to integer and
extract the relevant bits with shifts.
I'm not sure if this is the right place for this. This could arguably
be part of widenScalar for the result. I also have a growing feeling
that we're missing a bitcast legalize action.
