Chris Lattner 4041ab6e00 Implement rdar://7860110 (also in target/readme.txt) narrowing
a load/or/and/store sequence into a narrower store when it is
safe.  Daniel tells me that clang will start producing this sort
of thing with bitfields, and this does  trigger a few dozen times
on 176.gcc produced by llvm-gcc even now.

This compiles code like CodeGen/X86/2009-05-28-DAGCombineCrash.ll 
into:

        movl    %eax, 36(%rdi)

instead of:

        movl    $4294967295, %eax       ## imm = 0xFFFFFFFF
        andq    32(%rdi), %rax
        shlq    $32, %rcx
        addq    %rax, %rcx
        movq    %rcx, 32(%rdi)

and each of the testcases into a single store.  Each of them used
to compile into craziness like this:

_test4:
	movl	$65535, %eax            ## imm = 0xFFFF
	andl	(%rdi), %eax
	shll	$16, %esi
	addl	%eax, %esi
	movl	%esi, (%rdi)
	ret
