[InstCombine] Teach InstCombine how to handle an obfuscated splat.

An obfuscated splat is where the frontend poorly generates code for a splat
using several different shuffles to create the splat, i.e.,

  %A = load <4 x float>* %in_ptr, align 16
  %B = shufflevector <4 x float> %A, <4 x float> undef, <4 x i32> <i32 0, i32 0, i32 undef, i32 undef>
  %C = shufflevector <4 x float> %B, <4 x float> %A, <4 x i32> <i32 0, i32 1, i32 4, i32 undef>
  %D = shufflevector <4 x float> %C, <4 x float> %A, <4 x i32> <i32 0, i32 1, i32 2, i32 4>
