/* NOTE(bill, 2022-05-28):
Thanks to Per Vognsen, sign extending <N x i1> to
a vector of the same width as the input vector, bit casting to an integer,
and then comparing against zero is the better option
See: https://lists.llvm.org/pipermail/llvm-dev/2012-September/053046.html

// Example assuming 128-bit vector
%1 = <4 x float> ...

%3 = fcmp oeq <4 x float> %1, %2
%4 = sext <4 x i1> %3 to <4 x i32>
%5 = bitcast <4 x i32> %4 to i128
%6 = icmp ne i128 %5, 0
br i1 %6, label %true1, label %false2
This will result in 1 cmpps + 1 ptest + 1 br
(even without SSE4.1, contrary to what the mail list states, because of pmovmskb)
