While processing scalar IR nodes corresponding to Java SE APIs [Short/Character/Integer/Long].reverseBytes SLP analysis checks passes since relevant support already existed.

Tests copyright header validation failed because you forgot `,` after `2022` year in TestLongVect.java and TestShortVect.java.
Otherwise testing results are good.
