In two instances of CreateStackTemporary we are sometimes promoting
alignments beyond the stack alignment. I have introduced a new function
called getReducedAlign that will return the alignment for the broken
down parts of illegal vector types. For example, on NEON a <32 x i8>
type is made up of two <16 x i8> types - in this case the sensible
alignment is 16 bytes, not 32.
In the legalization code wherever we create stack temporaries I have
started using the reduced alignments instead for illegal vector types.
I added a test to
CodeGen/AArch64/build-one-lane.ll
that tries to insert an element into an illegal fixed vector type
that involves creating a temporary stack object.

Use the whole gammut of constant immediates available to set up a vector.
Instead of using, for example, `mov w0, #0xffff; dup v0.4s, w0`, which
transfers between register files, use the more efficient `movi v0.4s, #-1`
instead. Not limited to just a few values, but any immediate value that can
be encoded by all the variants of `FMOV`, `MOVI`, `MVNI`, thus eliminating
the need to there be patterns to optimize special cases.

Get rid of icky goto loops and make the code easier to maintain. Otherwise,
NFC.
Restore r324903 and fix PR36369.
