An identity COPY like this:
%AL = COPY %AL, %EAX<imp-def>
has no semantic effect, but encodes liveness information: Further users
of %EAX only depend on this instruction even though it does not define
the full register.
Replace the COPY with a KILL instruction in those cases to maintain this
liveness information. (This reverts a small part of r238588 but this
time adds a comment explaining why a KILL instruction is useful).

The patch removes redundant kmov instructions (not all, we still have a lot of work here) and redundant "and" instructions after "setcc".
I use "AssertZero" marker between X86ISD::SETCC node and "truncate" to eliminate extra "and $1" instruction.
I also changed zext, aext and trunc patterns in the .td file. It allows to remove extra "kmov" instruictions.
This patch fixes https://llvm.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=28173.
Fast ISEL mode is not supported correctly for AVX-512. ICMP/FCMP scalar instruction should return result in k-reg. It will be fixed in one of the next patches. I redirected handling of "cmp" to the DAG builder mode. (The code looks worse in one specific test case, but without this fix the new patch fails).

lower broadcast<type>x<vector> to shuffles.
there are two cases:
1.src is 128 bits and dest is 512 bits: in this case we will lower it to shuffle with imm = 0.
2.src is 256 bit and dest is 512 bits: in this case we will lower it to shuffle with imm = 01000100b (0x44) that way we will broadcast the 256bit source: ymm[0,1,2,3] => zmm[0,1,2,3,0,1,2,3] then it will mask it with the passthru value (in case it's mask op).

Copying one mask register to another under BW should be done with kmovq instruction, otherwise we can loose some bits.
Copying 8 bits under DQ may be done with kmovb.
