Follow up [JDK-8359419](https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8359419), RVV supports all vector type conversion APIs in the Vector API.
So we only need to relax the length limit of the short type to achieve a significant improvement in JMH performance for converting between short and wider types.
### Test
qemu-system UseRVV:
* [x] Run jdk_vector (fastdebug)
* [x] Run compiler/vectorapi (fastdebug)
### Performance
Following shows the performance improvement of relative VectorAPI JMHs on k1 (256-bit RVV):
Benchmark (SIZE) Mode Units Before After Gain
VectorFPtoIntCastOperations.microDouble128ToShort128 512 thrpt ops/ms 52.280 840.112 16.07
VectorFPtoIntCastOperations.microDouble128ToShort128 1024 thrpt ops/ms 28.156 429.322 15.25
VectorFPtoIntCastOperations.microFloat64ToShort64 512 thrpt ops/ms 14.242 479.509 33.67
VectorFPtoIntCastOperations.microFloat64ToShort64 1024 thrpt ops/ms 6.906 242.690 35.14
PS: `VectorFPtoIntCastOperations.microFloat64ToShort64` is added by [JDK-8359419](https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8359419).
