RFR: 8314612: TestUnorderedReduction.java fails with -XX:MaxVectorSize=32 and -XX:+AlignVector [v2]

> **Problem**
> 
> There is a case where `PhaseIdealLoop::move_unordered_reduction_out_of_loop` gets a chain of `UnorderedReduction` which have differing vector lengths. But this can lead to wrong results, as some elements now get dropped or "hallucinated".
> 
> Details:
> `-XX:+AlingVector` creates alignment boundaries over which no pack can go. Effectively, it cuts the packs at the alignment boundaries. This can create unexpected series of packs with lengths `[4, 8, 4]`, rather than `[8, 8]`.
> 
> **Solution**
> 
> We need to check that all `UnorderedReduction` have the same `vect_type()`. That ensures all have the same length and element type.
> 
> **Testing**
> 
> I converted the old test into scenario `v016-U`, and added scenario `v032-A` (fails without the patch). Also, I added some vanilla scenarios, just to ensure the test cases can be run with other flag combinations. The IR tests are targeted at scenario `v016-U`.
> 
> Tests: tier1-6, stress-testing. **Running**
