This patch adds support for the vec_vinsert4b and vec_vextract4b built-in
functions that generate the ISA 3.0 XXINSERTW and XXEXTRACTUW/VEXTUW{L,R}X
instructions.  These functions are part of the PowerOpen 64-bit ELF V2 abi.

In doing the work, I noticed the P9V built-in ternary functions incorrectly
were declared to be binary.  I have fixed these functions.

The built-ins added are:

long long vec_vextract4b (const vector signed char, const int);
long long vec_vextract4b (const vector unsigned char, const int);

vector signed char vec_insert4b (vector int, vector signed char, const int);
vector unsigned char vec_insert4b (vector unsigned int, vector unsigned char,
                                   const int);
vector signed char vec_insert4b (long long, vector signed char, const int);
vector unsigned char vec_insert4b (long long, vector unsigned char, const int);

Note, the ABI only adds the form of vec_insert4b that takes a vector int as the
first argument.  On little endian systems, you have to swap double words to get
the desired element into the scalar position for the XXINSERTW instruction.

I have added a GCC extension to alternatively take a long long (or long in
64-bit) for the value to be inserted, since IMHO, it makes the built-in much
easier to use.

I have done bootstrap builds on a 64-bit power8 little endian system and a
32/64-bit power7 big endian system.  There were no regressions.  Can I check
this into the GCC trunk?

Yes, please apply.  One remark below.

If what is invalid?  Just remove the first comment?

Thanks,

I had copied the code from DST before, and it returns (const_int 0).  However,
normal built-ins can't return (const_int 0) because the rest of the compiler
generates all sorts of errors.  Instead after raising the error, you have to
generate a normal function call.  I'll remove the comment.
