[VPlan] Introduce VPInstructionWithType, use instead of VPScalarCast(NFC) (#129706)

There are some opcodes that currently require specialized recipes, due
to their result type not being implied by their operands, including
casts.

This leads to duplication from defining multiple full recipes.

This patch introduces a new VPInstructionWithType subclass that also
stores the result type. The general idea is to have opcodes needing to
specify a result type to use this general recipe. The current patch
replaces VPScalarCastRecipe with VInstructionWithType, a similar patch
for VPWidenCastRecipe will follow soon.

There are a few proposed opcodes that should also benefit, without the
need of workarounds:

The LLVM Compiler Infrastructure

OpenSSF Scorecard OpenSSF Best Practices libc++

Welcome to the LLVM project!

This repository contains the source code for LLVM, a toolkit for the construction of highly optimized compilers, optimizers, and run-time environments.

The LLVM project has multiple components. The core of the project is itself called “LLVM”. This contains all of the tools, libraries, and header files needed to process intermediate representations and convert them into object files. Tools include an assembler, disassembler, bitcode analyzer, and bitcode optimizer.

C-like languages use the Clang frontend. This component compiles C, C++, Objective-C, and Objective-C++ code into LLVM bitcode -- and from there into object files, using LLVM.

Other components include: the libc++ C++ standard library, the LLD linker, and more.

Getting the Source Code and Building LLVM

Consult the Getting Started with LLVM page for information on building and running LLVM.

For information on how to contribute to the LLVM project, please take a look at the Contributing to LLVM guide.

Getting in touch
