I think we can meet all requests by adding `jdk_vector_sanity` subset of vector tests similar to existing `jdk_svc_sanity`.
The motivation for that is to catch obvious bugs in vector code generation on 32-bit platforms and aarch64 very early.
We, in Oracle, help to test 64 bits but it is not enough I think.
Vector API is stable enough already and I think we can have some sanity checks for it in tier1.
The only issue is to find subset of tests.
