[InstCombine] try to convert vector insert+extract to trunc; 2nd try

This was originally committed at rL343407, but reverted at 
rL343458 because it crashed trying to handle a case where
the destination type is FP. This version of the patch adds
a check for that possibility. Tests added at rL343480.

Original commit message:

This transform is requested for the backend in:
https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=39016
...but I figured it was worth doing in IR too, and it's probably
easier to implement here, so that's this patch.

In the simplest case, we are just truncating a scalar value. If the
extract index doesn't correspond to the LSBs of the scalar, then we
have to shift-right before the truncate. Endian-ness makes this tricky,
but hopefully the ASCII-art helps visualize the transform.
