  Created a new function, gimple_build_vector_from_elems,
for use when creating vectorized definitions for basic block
vectorization in vect_create_constant_vectors.

The existing gimple_build_vector function cannot be used
for SVE vector types because it relies on the type
associated with the tree_vector_builder having a constant
number of subparts. Even if that limitation were lifted, the
possibility of tree_vector_builder patterns being used is
inappropriate.

The new function takes a vector type and vec of tree nodes
giving the element values to put into the built vector, instead of an
instance of tree_vector_builder. If the number of values is zero then
a zero constant is built. If all values are constant then a vector
constant is built. Otherwise, a new constructor node is created.

gcc/ChangeLog:

	* gimple-fold.cc (gimple_build_vector_from_elems): Define a
	new function to build a vector from a list of elements that need
	not be complete.
	* gimple-fold.h (gimple_build_vector_from_elems): Declare a new
	function and a simpler overloaded version with fewer parameters.
	* tree-vect-slp.cc (vect_create_constant_vectors):
	For basic block SLP vectorization, pad each constant to the
	minimum vector length (which is the same as the actual vector
	length, except in the case of variable-length vector types).
	Use gimple_build_vector_from_elems instead of
	duplicate_and_interleave to create non-uniform constant
	vectors for BB SLP vectorization.
