[Mesa-stable] [PATCH 1/2] i965: Emit MOVs for neg/abs.

Necessary to avoid combining a bitcast and a modifier into a single
operation. Otherwise if safe, the MOV should be removed by
copy-propagation or register coalescing.

With this and the next patch, there are only four changes in shader-db:
all a single extra instruction. The code does something like
   mov a.w, -b.x
and copy propagation doesn't work because it only handles no-op
swizzles. Seems acceptable, given the known limitation of our copy
propagation.
