Define AVX broadcast intrinsics
This defines `_mm256_broadcast_ps` and `_mm256_broadcast_pd`. The `_ss`
and `_sd` variants are not supported by LLVM. In Clang these intrinsics
are implemented as inline functions in C++.

Intel reference: https://software.intel.com/en-us/node/514144.

Note: the argument type should really be "0hPc" (a pointer to a vector
of half the width), but internally the LLVM intrinsic takes a pointer to
a signed integer, and for any other type LLVM will complain. This means
that a transmute is required to call these intrinsics.

The AVX2 broadcast intrinsics `_mm256_broadcastss_ps` and
`_mm256_broadcastsd_pd` are not available as LLVM intrinsics. In Clang
they are implemented using the shufflevector builtin.
