i965/fs: Support arbitrarily large sampler state indices on Haswell+.
The message descriptor's "Sampler Index" field is only 4 bits (on all generations of hardware), so it can only represent indices 0 through 15. Haswell introduced a new field in the message header - "Sampler State Pointer". Normally, this is copied straight from g0, but we can also add a byte offset (as long as it's a multiple of 32). This patch uses a "Sampler State Pointer" offset to select a group of 16 sampler states, and then uses the "Sampler Index" field to select the state within that group.
