rs6000: Use direct move for char/short vector CTOR [PR96933]
This patch is to make vector CTOR with char/short leverage direct
move instructions when they are available. With one constructed
test case, it can speed up 145% for char and 190% for short on P9.
Tested SPEC2017 x264_r at -Ofast on P9, it gets 1.61% speedup
(but based on unexpected SLP see PR96789).
Bootstrapped/regtested on powerpc64{,le}-linux-gnu P8 and
powerpc64le-linux-gnu P9.
