This adds the family of `vshlq_n` and `vshrq_n` ACLE intrinsics, which
shift every lane of a vector left or right by a compile-time
immediate. They mostly work by expanding to the IR `shl`, `lshr` and
`ashr` operations, with their second operand being a vector splat of
the immediate.

There's a fiddly special case, though. ACLE specifies that the
immediate in `vshrq_n` can take values up to //and including// the bit
size of the vector lane. But LLVM IR thinks that shifting right by the
full size of the lane is UB, and feels free to replace the `lshr` with
an `undef` half way through the optimization pipeline. Hence, to keep
this legal in source code, I have to detect it at codegen time.
Logical (unsigned) right shifts by the element size are handled by
simply emitting the zero vector; arithmetic ones are converted into a
shift of one bit less, which will always give the same output.

In order to do that check, I also had to enhance the tablegen
MveEmitter so that it can cope with converting a builtin function's
operand into a bare integer to pass to a code-generating subfunction.
Previously the only bare integers it knew how to handle were flags
generated from within `arm_mve.td`.
