insn_propagation would previously only replace (reg:M H) with X

This patch extends it to handle simple mode punning too.
The original motivation was to try to get rid of the execution
frequency test in aarch64_split_simd_shift_p, but doing that is
follow-up work.
I tried this on at least one target per CPU directory (as for
the late-combine patches) and it seems to be a small win for
all of them.
The patch includes a couple of updates to the ia32 results.
In pr105033.c, foo3 replaced:
vmovq 8(%esp), %xmm1
vpunpcklqdq %xmm1, %xmm0, %xmm0
with:
vmovhps 8(%esp), %xmm0, %xmm0
In vect-bfloat16-2b.c, 5 of the vec_extract_v32bf_* routines
(specifically the ones with nonzero even indices) replaced
things like:
movl 28(%esp), %eax
vmovd %eax, %xmm0
with:
vpinsrw $0, 28(%esp), %xmm0, %xmm0
(These functions return a bf16, and so only the low 16 bits matter.)
Bootstrapped & regression-tested on aarch64-linux-gnu and
x86_64-linux-gnu. OK to install?

OK
