Refactoring LegalizerHelper::widenScalar member function reducing its
size by approximately a factor of 2 and (hopefuly) making it more
straightforward and regular by introducing widenScalarSrc and
widenScalarDst helper methods.
The new widenScalar* methods mutate the instructions in place instead
of recreating them from scratch and removing the originals. The
compile time implications of this were measured on sqlite3
amalgamation, targeting AArch64 in -O0:
LegalizerHelper::widenScalar: > 25% faster
Legalizer::runOnMachineFunction: ~ 4.0 - 4.5% faster
Also adding MachineOperand::setCImm and refactoring out
MachineIRBuilder::recordInsertion methods to make the change possible.
