[DAG] Further improve the logic in DAGCombiner that folds a pair of shuffles into a single shuffle if the resulting mask is legal. This patch teaches the DAGCombiner how to fold shuffles according to the following new rules: 1. shuffle(shuffle(x, y), undef) -> x 2. shuffle(shuffle(x, y), undef) -> y 3. shuffle(shuffle(x, y), undef) -> shuffle(x, undef) 4. shuffle(shuffle(x, y), undef) -> shuffle(y, undef) The backend avoids to combine shuffles according to rules 3. and 4. if the resulting shuffle does not have a legal mask. This is to avoid introducing illegal shuffles that are potentially expanded into a sub-optimal sequence of target specific dag nodes during vector legalization. Added test case combine-vec-shuffle-2.ll to verify that we correctly triggers the new rules when combining shuffles. llvm-svn: 212748
