Test updated to expect i8 gep.
Original message:
This adopts a similar behavior to AArch64 SVE, where bool vectors are
represented as a vector of chars with 1/8 the number of elements. This
ensures the vector always occupies a power of 2 number of bytes.
A consequence of this is that vbool64_t, vbool32_t, and vool16_t can
only be used with a vector length that guarantees at least 8 bits.

The first patch supported only LMUL=1 types. This patch supports
LMUL!=1.
LMUL is length multiplier that allows multiple vector registers to
be treated as one large register or a fraction of a single vector
register. Supported values for LMUL are 1/8, 1/4, 1/2, 1, 2, 4, and 8.
An LMUL=2 type will be twice as large as an LMUL=1 type. An LMUL=1/2
type will be half the size as an LMUL=1 type.
Type name with "m2" is LMUL=2, "m4" is LMUL=4.
Type name with "mf2" is LMUL=1/2, "mf4" is LMUL=1/4.
For the LMUL!=1 types the user will need to scale __riscv_v_fixed_vlen
by the LMUL before passing to the attribute.

The error message isn't great, but it's temporary until we support these.

This allows the user to set the size of the scalable vector so they
can be used in structs and as the type of global variables. This works
by representing the type as a fixed vector instead of a scalable vector
in IR. Conversions to and from scalable vectors are made where necessary
like function arguments/returns and intrinsics.

I know arm_sve_vector_bits is used by the Eigen library so this
could be used to port Eigen to RVV.
This patch adds a new preprocessor define `__riscv_v_fixed_vlen` that
is set when -mrvv_vector_bits is passed on the command line.
The code is largely based on the AArch64 code. A lot of code was
copy/pasted and then modiied to RVV. There may be some opportunities
for sharing.
This first patch only supports the LMUL=1 types. Additional changes
will be needed to support other LMULs. I have also not supported
mask vectors.

These 2 spots are protecting calls to SVE specific functions. If RISC-V
sizeless types end up in there we trigger assertions.
Use the more specific isSVESizelessBuiltinType() to avoid letting
RISC-V vectors through.

This case was being picked up by SVE code and printing an SVE
specific message.
This patch distinquishes RVV from SVE and provides a correct error
message for RVV.
The use of the generic isSizelessBuiltinType was also picking up
WebAssembly reference types which was probably an accident so I've
removed that.
I've named the test similar to SVE's test that contains this check.
Their test also tests the arm_sve_vector_bits attribute. I plan to
add something similar for RISC-V soon so I've adopted this naming.
