Support removed LLVM intrinsics by invoking its AutoUpgrade mechanism. Turns out that LLVM sometimes renames platform intrinsics or replaces them with first-class instructions. For example, signed minimum became `select (icmp SLT, a, b), a, b` where `a` and `b` are vectors. This is blocking the Servo rustup ([relevant failure](http://build.servo.org/builders/windows-dev/builds/226/steps/compile/logs/stdio)), as they're using a few such intrinsics. The fix in this PR is to invoke LLVM's own `AutoUpgrade` mechanism to do the replacements.

Do we want a tracking issue/TODO for when we drop support for the last LLVM which still supports the call natively? |
