[x86] Add vector @llvm.ctpop intrinsic custom lowering

Currently, when ctpop is supported for scalar types, the expansion of
@llvm.ctpop.vXiY uses vector element extractions, insertions and individual
calls to @llvm.ctpop.iY. When not, expansion with bit-math operations is used
for the scalar calls.

Local haswell measurements show that we can improve vector @llvm.ctpop.vXiY
expansion in some cases by using a using a vector parallel bit twiddling
approach, based on:

v = v - ((v >> 1) & 0x55555555);
v = (v & 0x33333333) + ((v >> 2) & 0x33333333);
v = ((v + (v >> 4) & 0xF0F0F0F)
v = v + (v >> 8)
v = v + (v >> 16)
v = v & 0x0000003F
(from http://graphics.stanford.edu/~seander/bithacks.html#CountBitsSetParallel)

When scalar ctpop isn't supported, the approach above performs better for
v2i64, v4i32, v4i64 and v8i32 (see numbers below). And even when scalar ctpop
is supported, this approach performs ~2x better for v8i32.

Here, x86_64 implies -march=corei7-avx without ctpop and x86_64h includes ctpop
support with -march=core-avx2.
