[InstCombine] fold shuffles of insert_subvectors
This should be a valid exception to the general rule of not creating new shuffle masks in IR... because we already do it. :) Also, DAG combining/legalization will undo this by widening the shuffle back out if needed. Explanation for how we already do this: SLP or vector source can create chains of insert/extract as shown in 1 of the examples from PR16739: https://godbolt.org/z/NlK7rA https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=16739 And we expect instcombine or DAGCombine to clean that up by creating relatively simple shuffles.
