CL/aarch64: implement the wasm SIMD v128.load{32,64}_zero instructions.

This patch implements, for aarch64, the following wasm SIMD extensions.

  v128.load32_zero and v128.load64_zero instructions
  https://github.com/WebAssembly/simd/pull/237

The changes are straightforward:

* no new CLIF instructions.  They are translated into an existing CLIF scalar
  load followed by a CLIF `scalar_to_vector`.

* the comment/specification for CLIF `scalar_to_vector` has been changed to
  match the actual intended semantics, per consulation with Andrew Brown.

* translation from `scalar_to_vector` to aarch64 `fmov` instruction.  This
  has been generalised slightly so as to allow both 32- and 64-bit transfers.

* special-case zero in `lower_constant_f128` in order to avoid a
  potentially slow call to `Inst::load_fp_constant128`.

* Once "Allow loads to merge into other operations during instruction
  selection in MachInst backends"
  (https://github.com/bytecodealliance/wasmtime/issues/2340) lands,
  we can use that functionality to pattern match the two-CLIF pair and
  emit a single AArch64 instruction.

* A simple filetest has been added.

There is no comprehensive testcase in this commit, because that is a separate
repo.  The implementation has been tested, nevertheless.
