Add support for (expressing) vscale.

In LLVM IR, vscale can be represented with an intrinsic. For some targets,
this is equivalent to the constexpr:

  getelementptr <vscale x 1 x i8>, <vscale x 1 x i8>* null, i32 1

This can be used to propagate the value in CodeGenPrepare.

In ISel we add a node that can be legalized to one or more
instructions to materialize the runtime vector length.

This patch also adds SVE CodeGen support for VSCALE, which maps this
node to RDVL instructions (for scaled multiples of 16bytes) or CNT[HSD]
instructions (scaled multiples of 2, 4, or 8 bytes, respectively).
