cmd/compile: optimize shift pairs and masks on s390x

Optimize combinations of left and right shifts by a constant value
into a 'rotate then insert selected bits [into zero]' instruction.
Use the same instruction for contiguous masks since it has some
benefits over 'and immediate' (not restricted to 32-bits, does not
overwrite source register).

To keep the complexity of this change under control I've only
implemented 64 bit operations for now.

There are a lot more optimizations that can be done with this
instruction family. However, since their function overlaps with other
instructions we need to be somewhat careful not to break existing
optimization rules by creating optimization dead ends. This is
particularly true of the load/store merging rules which contain lots
of zero extensions and shifts.

This CL does interfere with the store merging rules when an operand
is shifted left before it is stored:

  binary.BigEndian.PutUint64(b, x << 1)

This is unfortunate but it's not critical and somewhat complex so
I plan to fix that in a follow up CL.
