[CostModel] Add a DstTy to getShuffleCost (#141634)

A shuffle will take two input vectors and a mask, to produce a new
vector of size <MaskElts x SrcEltTy>. Historically it has been assumed
that the SrcTy and the DstTy are the same for getShuffleCost, with that
being relaxed in recent years. If the Tp passed to getShuffleCost is the
SrcTy, then the DstTy can be calculated from the Mask elts and the src
elt size, but the Mask is not always provided and the Tp is not reliably
always the SrcTy. This has led to situations notably in the SLP
vectorizer but also in the generic cost routines where assumption about
how vectors will be legalized are built into the generic cost routines -
for example whether they will widen or promote, with the cost modelling
assuming they will widen but the default lowering to promote for integer
vectors.

This patch attempts to start improving that - it originally tried to
alter more of the cost model but that too quickly became too many
changes at once, so this patch just plumbs in a DstTy to getShuffleCost
so that DstTy and SrcTy can be reliably distinguished. The callers of
getShuffleCost have been updated to try and include a DstTy that is more
accurate. Otherwise it tries to be fairly non-functional, keeping the
SrcTy used as the primary type used in shuffle cost routines, only using
DstTy where it was in the past (for InsertSubVector for example).

Some asserts have been added that help to check for consistent values
when a Mask and a DstTy are provided to getShuffleCost. Some of them
took a while to get right, and some non-mask calls might still be
incorrect. Hopefully this will provide a useful base to build more
shuffles that alter size.

The LLVM Compiler Infrastructure

OpenSSF Scorecard OpenSSF Best Practices libc++

Welcome to the LLVM project!

This repository contains the source code for LLVM, a toolkit for the construction of highly optimized compilers, optimizers, and run-time environments.

The LLVM project has multiple components. The core of the project is itself called “LLVM”. This contains all of the tools, libraries, and header files needed to process intermediate representations and convert them into object files. Tools include an assembler, disassembler, bitcode analyzer, and bitcode optimizer.

C-like languages use the Clang frontend. This component compiles C, C++, Objective-C, and Objective-C++ code into LLVM bitcode -- and from there into object files, using LLVM.

Other components include: the libc++ C++ standard library, the LLD linker, and more.
