https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8235688
Reduce the number of AD instructions needed to implement vector
operations by merging existing ones. The patch covers the following node
types:
- AddV(B/S/I/L/F/D)
- SubVB/.../SubVD
- MulVB/.../MulVD

As Jatin described, merging is applied only to AD instructions of
similar shape. There are some more opportunities for reduction/merging
left, but they are deliberately left out for future work.
The patch is derived from the inintial version of generic vector support
[1]. Generic vector support was reviewed earlier [2].
Testing: tier1-4, test run on different CPU flavors (KNL, SKL, etc)
