Currently we drop nontemporal attribute when vectorizing instructions, and this
patch fixes it. It hasn't been a problem, because there weren't cases when we
needed to vectorize scalar instructions with nontemporal attribute. But I'm
working on adding language attribute 'attribute((nontemporal)' to front-end,
after which we'll encounter such cases.

This is similar to D12213, but for loop-vectorizer.
