[CodeGen] Re-apply r234809 (concat of scalars), with an x86_mmx fix.
The only type that isn't an integer, isn't floating point, and isn't
a vector; ladies and gentlemen, the gift that keeps on giving: x86_mmx!
Fixes PR23246.
Original message (reverted in r235062):
[CodeGen] Combine concat_vectors of scalars into build_vector.
Combine something like:
(v8i8 concat_vectors (v2i8 bitcast (i16)) x4)
into:
(v8i8 (bitcast (v4i16 BUILD_VECTOR (i16) x4)))
If any of the scalars are floating point, use that throughout.
