RFR: 8334505: RISC-V: Several tests fail when MaxVectorSize does not match VM_Version::_initial_vector_length [v2]

[Gui Cao]

> HI, It's possible to specify a MaxVectorSize which is not equal to VM_Version::_initial_vector_length on RISC-V. For example, it could happen on Banana-Pi that MaxVectorSize equals 16, while VM_Version::_initial_vector_length is 32. This may lead to several jtreg test failures, see jbs issue for exception information.
> 
> The reason for this problem is that when spill vector registers into memory, the whole width of the register is used incorrectly, and MaxVectorSize should be used to handle the number of elements spill.

> PR propose to simply set MaxVectorSize to VM_Version::_initial_vector_length for the following reasons:
> 1. The CSR_VLENB register of RISC-V is read-only, we can't change it to MaxVectorSize like like aarch64.
> 2. It does not make sense to me to set MaxVectorSize to a value smaller than VM_Version::_initial_vector_length in the real world, which might bring negative impact on performance.
> 3. If MaxVectorSize equals to VM_Version::_initial_vector_length, then we can make use of vs1r_v/vl1r_v when saving and restoring vector registers, which avoids the need to control the number of elements with vsetvli.

> After this patch, MaxVectorSize always equal to VM_Version::_initial_vector_length:
