[DAGCombiner] reduce insert+bitcast+extract vector ops to truncate (PR39016)
This is a late backend subset of the IR transform added with: D52439 We can confirm that the conversion to a 'trunc' is correct by running: $ opt -instcombine -data-layout="e" (assuming the IR transforms are correct; change "e" to "E" for big-endian) As discussed in PR39016: https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=39016 ...the pattern may emerge during legalization, so that's we are waiting for an insertelement to become a scalar_to_vector in the pattern matching here. The DAG allows for fun variations that are not possible in IR. Result types for extracts and scalar_to_vector don't necessarily match input types, so that means we have to be a bit more careful in the transform (see code comments). The tests show that we don't handle cases that require a shift (as we did in the IR version). I've left that as a potential follow-up because I'm not sure if that's a real concern at this late stage.
