[X86][AVX] Lower shuffles as repeated lane shuffles then lane-crossing shuffles

This patch attempts to represent a shuffle as a repeating shuffle (recognisable by is128BitLaneRepeatedShuffleMask) with the source input(s) in their original lanes, followed by a single permutation of the 128-bit lanes to their final destinations.

On AVX2 we can additionally attempt to match using 64-bit sub-lane permutation. AVX2 can also now match a similar 'broadcasted' repeating shuffle.

This patch has several benefits:

 * Avoids prematurely matching with lowerVectorShuffleByMerging128BitLanes which can require both inputs to have their input lanes permuted before shuffling.
 * Can replace PERMPS/PERMD instructions - although these are useful for cross-lane unary shuffling, they require their shuffle mask to be pre-loaded (and increase register pressure).
 * Matching the repeating shuffle makes use of a lot of existing shuffle lowering.

There is an outstanding minor AVX1 regression (combine_unneeded_subvector1 in vector-shuffle-combining.ll) of a previously 128-bit shuffle + subvector splat being converted to a subvector splat + (2 instruction) 256-bit shuffle, I intend to fix this in a followup patch for review.
