Summary:
Instead of just looking for a load which is mergable with Ext to form ExtLoad, trying to promote Exts as long as the cost is acceptable. This change is not a NFC as it continue promoting Exts even after finding a load during promotions; the change in arm64-codegen-prepare-extload.ll described in 2.b might show the case.
This change was motivated from D26524. Based on this change, I will move the transformation performed in aarch64-type-promotion into CGP.

extended loads.
Implement the related target lowering hook so that the optimization has a better
estimation of the cost of an extension.
