[InstCombine][x86] try harder to convert blendv intrinsic to generic IR (PR38814)
Missing optimizations with blendv are shown in: https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=38814 If this works, it's an easier and more powerful solution than adding pattern matching for a few special cases in the backend. The potential danger with this transform in IR is that the condition value can get separated from the select, and the backend might not be able to make a blendv out of it again. I don't think that's too likely, but I've kept this patch minimal with a 'TODO', so we can test that theory in the wild before expanding the transform.
