If an index for a vector or array type is out-of-range GEP constant
folding tries to factor it into preceding dimensions.  The code however
does not consider addressing of structure field padding which should not
qualify as out-of-range index.

As demonstrated by the testcase, this can occur if the indexing
performed on a vector type and the preceding index is an array type.

SROA generates GEPs for example involving padding bytes as it slices an
alloca.

My fix disables this folding if the element type is a vector type.  I
believe that this is the only way we can end up with padding.  (We have
no access to DataLayout so I am not sure if there is actual robust way
of actually checking the presence of padding.)
