In testing, we often generate "golden" values, and then compare the results with it. This requires comparison loops etc in every test. I would like to create a dedicated facility for this, to simplify testing in the future. This is also preparation for [JDK-8344942](https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8344942).

I have written code like this in various tests before, see:
`test/hotspot/jtreg/compiler/loopopts/superword/TestAlignVectorFuzzer.java`
`./test/hotspot/jtreg/compiler/loopopts/superword/TestMemorySegment.java`
`test/hotspot/jtreg/compiler/loopopts/superword/TestIndependentPacksWithCyclicDependency.java`.

It is now time to make a proper facility, so I can save time when writing tests in the future.
