Currently running the @insertelem_after_gep function below through the InstCombine pass with opt produces invalid IR.
Input:
```
define void @insertelem_after_gep(<16 x i32>* %t0) {
%t1 = bitcast <16 x i32>* %t0 to [16 x i32]*
%t2 = addrspacecast [16 x i32]* %t1 to [16 x i32] addrspace(3)*
%t3 = getelementptr inbounds [16 x i32], [16 x i32] addrspace(3)* %t2, i64 0, i64 0
%t4 = insertelement <16 x i32 addrspace(3)*> undef, i32 addrspace(3)* %t3, i32 0
call void @extern_vec_pointers_func(<16 x i32 addrspace(3)*> %t4)
ret void
}
```
Output:
```
define void @insertelem_after_gep(<16 x i32>* %t0) {
%t3 = getelementptr inbounds <16 x i32>, <16 x i32>* %t0, i64 0, i64 0
%t4 = insertelement <16 x i32 addrspace(3)*> undef, i32 addrspace(3)* %t3, i32 0
call void @my_extern_func(<16 x i32 addrspace(3)*> %t4)
ret void
}
```
Which although causes no complaints when produced, isn't valid IR as the insertelement use of the %t3 GEP expects an address space.
```
opt: /tmp/bad.ll:52:73: error: '%t3' defined with type 'i32*' but expected 'i32 addrspace(3)*'
%t4 = insertelement <16 x i32 addrspace(3)*> undef, i32 addrspace(3)* %t3, i32 0
```
I've fixed this by adding an addrspacecast after the GEP in the InstCombine pass, and including a check for this type mismatch to the verifier.

The bitcast may be interfering with other combines or vectorization
as shown in PR16739:
https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=16739
Most pointer-related optimizations are probably able to look through
this bitcast, but removing the bitcast shrinks the IR, so it's at
least a size savings.

Follow-up of r316824. This patch supports the vector type for both current and
previous index when factoring out the current one into the previous one.

LLVM crashes when factoring out an out-of-bound index into preceding dimension
and the preceding dimension uses vector index. Simply bail out now when this
case happens.
