Optimized Vector API values are represented as raw values in SIMD registers. When deoptimizing with such a value in the state, a Java heap object must be recreated. HotSpot has a special "Location::vector" location type to mark Vector API values, and it knows how to materialize such values.

Extend the JVMCI code installer to mark the appropriate values as vectors so that JVMCI-compiled code can also deoptimize with Vector API values in SIMD registers.
