    PR 106245: Split (x<<31)>>31 as -(x&1) in i386.md

    This patch is the backend piece of a solution to PRs 101955 and 106245,
    that adds a define_insn_and_split to the i386 backend, to perform sign
    extension of a single (least significant) bit using and $1 then neg.

    Previously, (x<<31)>>31 would be generated as

            sall    $31, %eax       // 3 bytes
            sarl    $31, %eax       // 3 bytes

    with this patch the backend now generates:

            andl    $1, %eax        // 3 bytes
            negl    %eax            // 2 bytes

    Not only is this smaller in size, but microbenchmarking confirms
    that it's a performance win on both Intel and AMD; Intel sees only a
    2% improvement (perhaps just a size effect), but AMD sees a 7% win.
