Implement v16i8 multiply with this code:

        vmuloub v5, v3, v2
        vmuleub v2, v3, v2
        vperm v2, v2, v5, v4

This implements CodeGen/PowerPC/vec_mul.ll.  With this, v16i8 multiplies are
6.79x faster than before.

Overall, UnitTests/Vector/multiplies.c is now 2.45x faster with LLVM than with
GCC.

Remove the 'integer multiplies' todo from the README file.
