Bad codegen for widen followed by ARM `vdupq_n_*`

[CatsAreFluffy]

Code

I tried this code:

use std::arch::aarch64::*;

#[no_mangle]
pub unsafe fn half_dup(x: u16) -> uint16x8_t {
    vaddq_u16(vreinterpretq_u16_u32(vdupq_n_u32(x as u32)), vdupq_n_u16(1))
}

I expected to see this happen: The compiled output would use the dup instruction

Instead, this happened: The compiled output uses a bunch of movs instead

Maybe LLVM 20 upgrade?

[nikic]

@jieyouxu Rust 1.82 would be the LLVM 19 upgrade.

Yeah sorry somehow I didn't notice the 1.82
