If I understand correctly, the situation is:

1. `fptoint` is legal on subtarget `power9`, but needs libcall to implement on `power8` or earlier.
2. We can't set `fptoint` as `Expand` on `power8`, since in this case `Expand` won't fallthrough to libcall.
3. `ConvertNodeToLibcall` can't be referenced in target-specific lowering.
4. Besides, the framework only decides the action of `fptoint` by return-value type. But things like 'double to i32' doesn't need libcall on `power8`.
