[DAGCombiner] protect against an infinite loop between shl <--> mul (PR35579)

  
At first, I tried to thread the x86 needle and use a target hook (isVectorShiftByScalarCheap())
to disable the transform only for non-splat pow-of-2 constants, but not AVX2, but only some
element types, but...it's difficult.

Here we just avoid the loop with the x86 vector transform that conflicts with the general DAG
combine and preserve all of the existing behavior AFAICT otherwise.

Some tests that will probably fail if someone does try to restrict this in a more targeted way
for x86-only may be found in:

test/CodeGen/X86/combine-mul.ll
test/CodeGen/X86/vector-mul.ll
test/CodeGen/X86/widen_arith-5.ll

This should prevent the infinite looping seen with:
