I was comparing some SPEC CPU 2017 benchmarks across rva22u64 and
rva22u64_v, and noticed that in a few cases that rva22u64_v was
considerably slower.
One of them was 519.lbm_r, which has a large loop that was being
unprofitably vectorized. It has an if/else in the loop which requires
large amounts of predication when vectorized, but despite the loop
vectorizer taking this into account the vector cost came out as cheaper
than the scalar.
It looks like the reason for this is because we cost scalar floating
point ops as 2, but their vector equivalents as 1 (for LMUL 1). This
comes from how we use BasicTTIImpl for scalars which treats floats as
twice as expensive as integers.
This patch doubles the cost of vector floating point arithmetic ops so
that they're at least as expensive as their scalar counterparts, which
gives a 13% speedup on 519.lbm_r at -O3 on the spacemit-x60.
Fixes#62576 (the last point there about scalar fsub/fmul)
