These instructions have fast, inline JIT paths for the common cases, and only
call out to host VM functions for the slow paths. This required some changes to
`cranelift-wasm`'s `FuncEnvironment`: instead of taking a `FuncCursor` to insert
an instruction sequence within the current basic block,
`FuncEnvironment::translate_table_{get,set}` now take a `&mut FunctionBuilder`
so that they can create whole new basic blocks. This is necessary for
implementing GC read/write barriers that involve branching (e.g. checking for
null, or whether a store buffer is at capacity).
Furthermore, it required that the `load`, `load_complex`, and `store`
instructions handle loading and storing through an `r{32,64}` rather than just
`i{32,64}` addresses. This involved making `r{32,64}` types acceptable
instantiations of the `iAddr` type variable, plus a few new instruction
encodings.

This is useful to have to allow resumable_trap to happen in loop
headers, for instance. This is the correct way to implement interrupt
checks in Spidermonkey, which are effectively resumable traps. Previous
implementation was using traps, which is wrong, since traps semantically
can't be resumed after.
This converts an `i32x4` into an `f32x4` with some rounding either by using an AVX512VL/F instruction--VCVTUDQ2PS--or a long sequence of SSE4.1 compatible instructions.
The `convert_i64x2_imul` custom legalization checks the ISA flags for AVX512DQ or AVX512VL support and legalizes `imul.i64x2` to an `x86_pmullq` in this case; if not, it uses a lengthy SSE2-compatible instruction sequence.
Without this special instruction, legalizing to the AVX512 instruction AND the SSE instruction sequence is impossible. This extra instruction would be rendered unnecessary by the x64 backend.
The InsertLane format has an ordering (`value().imm().value()`) and immediate name (`"lane"`) that make it awkward to use for other instructions. This changes the ordering (`value().value().imm()`) and uses the default name (`"imm"`) throughout the codebase.
* Encode vselect using BLEND instructions on x86
* Legalize vselect to bitselect
* Optimize bitselect to vselect for some operands
* Add run tests for bitselect-vselect optimization
* Address review feedback
Certain operations (e.g. x86_packss) will have operands with types like `NxM` but will return results with types like `(N/2)x(M*2)` (halve the lane width, double the number of lanes; maintain the same number of vector bits). This is equivalent to applying two `DerivedFunction`s to the type: `DerivedFunction::HalfWidth` then `DerivedFunction::DoubleVector`. Since there is no easy way to apply multiple `DerivedFunction`s (e.g. most of the logic is one-level deep, 1d5a678124/cranelift/codegen/meta/src/gen_inst.rs (L618-L621)), I added `DerivedFunction::SplitLanes` to do the necessary type conversion.
This involves some large mask tables that may hurt code size but reduce the number of instructions. See https://github.com/WebAssembly/simd/issues/117 for a more in-depth discussion on this.
