Data types with a single lane are treated as scalars in TVM. On the other hand, in LLVM there is a difference between a scalar type and a vector type with a single lane. Because of that, a shuffle with a single index is equivalent to extracting an element in TIR, but not in the generated LLVM IR. This patch changes the LLVM codegen for shuffle to auto-convert single-lane vectors to scalars.
