Matt Pharr a5b7fca7e0 Extract constant offsets from gather/scatter base+offsets offset vectors. ...

When we're able to turn a general gather/scatter into the "base + offsets"
form, we now try to extract out any constant components of the offsets and
then pass them as a separate parameter to the gather/scatter function
implementation.

We then in turn carefully emit code for the addressing calculation so that
these constant offsets match LLVM's patterns to detect this case, such that
we get the constant offsets directly encoded in the instruction's addressing
calculation in many cases, saving arithmetic instructions to do these
calculations.

Improves performance of stencil by ~15%.  Other workloads unchanged.
