Nemanja Ivanovic 50d37a1129 [PowerPC] Sign-extend negative constant stores ...

Second part of https://reviews.llvm.org/D40348.
Revision r318436 has extended all constants feeding a store to 64 bits
to allow for CSE on the SDAG. However, negative constants were zero extended
which made the constant being loaded appear to be a positive value larger than
16 bits. This resulted in long sequences to materialize such constants
rather than simply a "load immediate". This patch just sign-extends those
updated constants so that they remain 16-bit signed immediates if they started
out that way.
