Targets supporting vector quadword multiplication have separate instructions to compute upper and lower quadwords for 128 bit result. Therefore existing VectorAPI multiplication operator expects shape conformance between source and result vectors.

>> If upper 32 bits of quadword multiplier and multiplicand is always set to zero then result of multiplication is only dependent on the partial product of their lower double words and can be performed using unsigned 32 bit multiplication instruction with quadword saturation. Patch matches this pattern in a target dependent manner without introducing new IR node.

It has much lower latency compared to full 64 bit multiplication instruction "VPMULLQ", in addition non-AVX512DQ targets does not support direct quadword multiplication, thus we can save redundant partial product for zeroed out upper 32 bits. This results into throughput improvements on both P and E core Xeons.

I was thinking about prototyping it soon. Just wanted to make sure we're not doing the same work twice :)

@jaskarth Please proceed with it, I have a really simple prototype for it but I don't have any plan to proceed further soon. Thanks a lot :)
