Fraser Cormack c8e33978fb [VP] Propagate align parameter attr on VP gather/scatter to ISel ...

This patch fixes a case where the 'align' parameter attribute on the
pointer operands to llvm.vp.gather and llvm.vp.scatter was being dropped
during the conversion to the SelectionDAG. The default alignment equal
to the ABI type alignment of the vector type was kept. It also updates
the documentation to reflect the fact that the parameter attribute is
now properly supported.

The default alignment of these intrinsics was previously documented as
being equal to the ABI alignment of the *scalar* type, when in fact that
wasn't the case: the ABI alignment of the vector type was used instead.
This has also been fixed in this patch.
