Rollup merge of #143194 - folkertdev:fix-single-element-simd-bitcast, r=workingjubilee
fix bitcast of single-element SIMD vectors
in effect this reverts #142768 and adds additional tests. That PR relaxed the conditions on an early return in an incorrect way that would create broken LLVM IR.
https://godbolt.org/z/PaaGWTv5a
```rust
#![feature(repr_simd)]
#[repr(simd)]
#[derive(Clone, Copy)]
struct S([i64; 1]);
#[no_mangle]
pub extern "C" fn single_element_simd(b: S) -> i64 {
unsafe { std::mem::transmute(b) }
}
```
at the time of writing generates this LLVM IR, where the type of the return is different from the function's return type.
```llvm
define noundef i64 ``````@single_element_simd(<1`````` x i64> %b) unnamed_addr {
start:
ret <1 x i64> %b
}
```
The test output is actually the same for the existing tests, showing that the change didn't actually matter for any tested behavior. It is probably a bit faster to do the early return, but, well, it's incorrect in general.
