[InstCombine] canonicalize vector select with constant vector condition to shuffle
As discussed on llvm-dev ( http://lists.llvm.org/pipermail/llvm-dev/2016-August/104210.html ):
turn a vector select with constant condition operand into a shuffle as a canonicalization step.
Shuffles may be easier to reason about in conjunction with other shuffles and insert/extract.
