Generalise VEC_DUPLICATE folding for variable-length vectors
This patch uses the constant vector encoding scheme to handle
more cases of a VEC_DUPLICATE of another vector. Duplicating
any fixed-length vector is fine, and duplicating a variable-length
vector is OK as long as that vector is also a duplicate of a
fixed-length sequence.
Other cases fell through to:
if (VECTOR_MODE_P (mode) && GET_CODE (op) == CONST_VECTOR)
which was only expecting to deal with elementwise operations.

* simplify-rtx.c (simplify_const_unary_operation): Fold a
VEC_DUPLICATE of a fixed-length vector even if the result
is variable-length. Likewise fold a duplicate of a
variable-length vector if the variable-length vector is
itself a duplicate of a fixed-length sequence.
(test_vector_ops_duplicate): Test more cases.
