Arm MVE has multiple instructions such as VMLAVA.s8, which (in this
case) can take two 128bit vectors, sign extend the inputs to i32,
multiplying them together and sum the result into a 32bit general
purpose register. So taking 16 i8's as inputs, they can multiply and
accumulate the result into a single i32 without any rounding/truncating
along the way. There are also reduction instructions for plain integer
add and min/max, and operations that sum into a pair of 32bit registers
together treated as a 64bit integer (even though MVE does not have a
plain 64bit addition instruction). So giving the vectorizer the ability
to use these instructions both enables us to vectorize at higher
bitwidths, and to vectorize things we previously could not.
In order to do that we need a way to represent that the reduction
operation, specified with a llvm.experimental.vector.reduce when
vectorizing for Arm, occurs inside the loop not after it like most
reductions. This patch attempts to do that, teaching the vectorizer
about in-loop reductions. It does this through a vplan recipe
representing the reductions that the original chain of reduction
operations is replaced by. Cost modelling is currently just done through
a prefersInloopReduction TTI hook (which follows in a later patch).

"error: 'get' is deprecated: The base class version of get with the scalable
argument defaulted to false is deprecated."
Changed VectorType::get() -> FixedVectorType::get().
This emits new IR intrinsic @llvm.get.active.mask for tail-folded vectorised
loops if the intrinsic is supported by the backend, which is checked by
querying TargetTransform hook emitGetActiveLaneMask.
This intrinsic creates a mask representing active and inactive vector lanes,
which is used by the masked load/store instructions that are created for
tail-folded loops. The semantics of @llvm.get.active.mask are described here in
LangRef:
https://llvm.org/docs/LangRef.html#llvm-get-active-lane-mask-intrinsics
This intrinsic is also used to provide a hint to the backend. That is, the
second argument of the intrinsic represents the back-edge taken count of the
loop. For MVE, for example, we use that to set up tail-predication, which is a
new form of predication in MVE for vector loops that implicitely predicates the
last vector loop iteration by implicitely setting active/inactive lanes, i.e.
the tail loop is predicated. In order to set up a tail-predicated vector loop,
we need to know the number of data elements processed by the vector loop, which
corresponds the the tripcount of the scalar loop, which we can now reconstruct
using @llvm.get.active.mask.

Summary:
When handling loops whose VF is 1, fold-tail vectorization sets the
backedge taken count of the original loop with a vector of a single
element. This causes type-mismatch during instruction generartion.
The purpose of this patch is toto address the case of VF==1.

The patch standardizes printing of VPRecipes a bit, by hoisting out the
common emission of \\l\"+\n. It simplifies the code and is also a first
step towards untangling printing from DOT format output, with the goal
of making the DOT output optional and to provide a more concise debug
output if DOT output is disabled.

When folding tail, branch taken count is computed during initial VPlan execution
and recorded to be used by the compare computing the loop's mask. This recording
should directly set the State, instead of reusing Value2VPValue mapping which
serves original Values present prior to vectorization.
The branch taken count may be a constant Value, which may be used elsewhere in
the loop; trying to employ Value2VPValue for both leads to the issue reported in

Widening a selects depends on whether the condition is loop invariant or
not. Rather than checking during codegen-time, the information can be
recorded at the VPlan construction time.
This was suggested as part of D76992, to reduce the reliance on

InnerLoopVectorizer's code called during VPlan execution still relies on
original IR's def-use relations to decide which vector code to generate,
limiting VPlan transformations ability to modify def-use relations and still
have ILV generate the vector code.
This commit introduces VPValues for VPBlendRecipe to use as the values to
blend. The recipe is generated with VPValues wrapping the phi's incoming values
of the scalar phi. This reduces ingredient def-use usage by ILV as a step
towards full VPlan-based def-use relations.

Introduce a new VPWidenCanonicalIVRecipe to generate a canonical vector
induction for use in fold-tail-with-masking, if a primary induction is absent.
The canonical scalar IV having start = 0 and step = VF*UF, created during code
-gen to control the vector loop, is widened into a canonical vector IV having
start = {<Part*VF, Part*VF+1, ..., Part*VF+VF-1> for 0 <= Part < UF} and
step = <VF*UF, VF*UF, ..., VF*UF>.

Currently when printing VPValues we use the object address, which makes
it hard to distinguish VPValues as they usually are large numbers with
varying distance between them.
This patch adds a simple slot tracker, similar to the ModuleSlotTracker
used for IR values. In order to dump a VPValue or anything containing a
VPValue, a slot tracker for the enclosing VPlan needs to be created. The
existing VPlanPrinter can take care of that for the existing code. We
assign consecutive numbers to each VPValue we encounter in a reverse
post order traversal of the VPlan.

This patch adds a getPlan accessor to VPBlockBase, which finds the entry
block of the plan containing the block and returns the plan set for this
block.
VPBlockBase contains a VPlan pointer, but it should only be set for
the entry block of a plan. This allows moving blocks without updating
the pointer for each moved block and in the future we might introduce a
parent relationship between plans and blocks, similar to the one in LLVM IR.

Memory instruction widening recipes use the pointer operand of their load/store
ingredient for generating the needed GEPs, making it difficult to feed these
recipes with pointers based on other ingredients or none at all.
This patch modifies these recipes to use a VPValue for the pointer instead, in
order to reduce ingredient def-use usage by ILV as a step towards full
VPlan-based def-use relations. The recipes are constructed with VPValues bound
to these ingredients, maintaining current behavior.
