[PATCH] D63700: [X86] Don't a vzext_movl in LowerBuildVectorv16i8/LowerBuildVectorv8i16 if there are no zeroes in the vector we're building.

In LowerBuildVectorv16i8 we took care to use an any_extend if the first pair is in the lower 16-bits of the vector and no elements are 0. So bits [31:16] will be undefined. But we still emitted a vzext_movl to ensure that bits [127:32] are 0. If we don't need any zeroes we should be consistent and make all of 127:16 undefined.

In LowerBuildVectorv8i16 we can just delete the vzext_movl code because we only use the scalar_to_vector when there are no zeroes. So the vzext_movl is always unnecessary.

Found while investigating whether (vzext_movl (scalar_to_vector (loadi32)) patterns are necessary. At least one of the cases where they were necessary was where the loadi32 matched 32-bit aligned 16-bit extload. Seemed weird that we required vzext_movl for that case.
