Roman Lebedev 8cd782487f [X86][LoopVectorize] "Fix" X86TTIImpl::getAddressComputationCost()
We ask `TTI.getAddressComputationCost()` about the cost of computing vector address,
and then multiply it by the vector width. This doesn't make any sense,
it implies that we'd do a vector GEP and then scalarize the vector of pointers,
but there is no such thing in the vectorized IR, we perform scalar GEP's.

This is *especially* bad on X86, and was effectively prohibiting any scalarized
vectorization of gathers/scatters, because `X86TTIImpl::getAddressComputationCost()`
says that cost of vector address computation is `10` as compared to `1` for scalar.

The computed costs are similar to the ones with D111222+D111220,
but we end up without masked memory intrinsics that we'd then have to
expand later on, without much luck. (D111363)
