This will make it easy to update as I change some parts of the X86
backend, makes it more clear what instruction differences are
introduced, and I find it makes it a bit easier to read as well.

4i32 shuffles for single insertions into zero vectors lowers to X86vzmovl which was using (v)blendps - causing domain switch stalls. This patch fixes this by using (v)pblendw instead.
The updated tests on test/CodeGen/X86/sse41.ll still contain a domain stall due to the use of insertps - I'm looking at fixing this in a future patch.

This patch improves the folding of vector AND nodes into blend operations for
targets that feature SSE4.1. A vector AND node where one of the operands is
a constant build_vector with elements that are either zero or all-ones can be
converted into a blend.
This allows for example to simplify the following code:
define <4 x i32> @test(<4 x i32> %A, <4 x i32> %B) {
%1 = and <4 x i32> %A, <i32 0, i32 0, i32 0, i32 -1>
%2 = and <4 x i32> %B, <i32 -1, i32 -1, i32 -1, i32 0>
%3 = or <4 x i32> %1, %2
ret <4 x i32> %3
}
Before this patch llc (-mcpu=corei7) generated:
andps LCPI1_0(%rip), %xmm0, %xmm0
andps LCPI1_1(%rip), %xmm1, %xmm1
orps %xmm1, %xmm0, %xmm0
retq
With this patch we generate a single 'vpblendw'.
