[LoopVectorize] Refine hasIrregularType predicate

The `hasIrregularType` predicate checks whether an array of N values of type Ty is "bitcast-compatible" with a <N x Ty> vector.
The previous check returned invalid results in some cases where there's some padding between the array elements: eg. a 4-element array of u7 values is considered as compatible with <4 x u7>, even though the vector is only loading/storing 28 bits instead of 32.

The problem causes LLVM to generate incorrect code for some targets: for AArch64 the vector loads/stores are lowered in terms of ubfx/bfi, effectively losing the top (N * padding bits).
