It's a cherry-pick from the sve-vls-sroa branch of Paul Walker's LLVM fork.

Downstream issue: #218
For function whose vscale_range is limited to a single value we can size scalable vectors. This aids SROA by allowing scalable vector load and store operations to be considered for replacement whereby bitcasts through memory can be replaced by vector insert or extract operations.
