Craig Topper d88389aa7e [X86] Use SHLD with both inputs from the same register to implement rotate on Sandy Bridge and later Intel CPUs ...

Summary:
Sandy Bridge and later CPUs have better throughput using a SHLD to implement rotate versus the normal rotate instructions. Additionally it saves one uop and avoids a partial flag update dependency.

This patch implements this change on any Sandy Bridge or later processor without BMI2 instructions. With BMI2 we will use RORX as we currently do.
