In the scalar case, the CVTTSS2SI (single precision) or CVTTSD2SI (double precision) instruction is used. In the vector case, the CVTTPS2DQ (single precision) or CVTTPD2DQ (double precision) is used. However, if the source contains a special value (NaN, -Infinity, +Infinity, <= Integer.MIN_VALUE, or >= Integer.MAX_VALUE), extra handling is required. The specific sequence of instructions involved depends on the source (single precision vs double precision), destination (long, integer, short, or byte), level of parallelization (scalar vs vector), and supported AVX extension type. Essentially though, the special values are mapped to values (NaN -> 0, -Infinity, <= Integer.MIN_VALUE -> Integer.MIN_VALUE, +Infinity, >= Integer.MAX_VALUE -> Integer.MAX_VALUE) in the integer range with the help of a few temporary regis
 ters to store intermediate results.

Also, the JTREG tests listed below were used to verify correctness with `-XX:-UseSuperWord` / `-XX:+UseSuperWord` options to exercise both scalar and vector paths. The baseline build used is [OpenJDK v26-b11](https://github.com/openjdk/jdk/releases/tag/jdk-26%2B11).

I haven't thoroughly reviewed the patch, but what caught my eye is that avx10 and avx10_2 are used interchangeably which adds confusion. My recollection is that AVX10.1 is equivalent to AVX512 set of capabilities. Can we uniformly refer to AVX10.2 as AVX10 in the code base then?
