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.
