[vector] Add tests for slice and unslice operations

[Yang Zhang (Arm Technology China)]

Hi Vivek

Could you separate these changes to two patches?
1. Add tests for slice and unslice
2. Fix some of the problems with the java implementation of slice and unsliced. Could you describe more details about the problems?

I think two patches will be more clear and make review easier.

Regards
Yang

Hi Qi

Thanks for reviewing and taking a look at the patch. I have the updated webrev.
Please find it here which has all the files which were missing in earlier webrev.

I have also fixed some of the problems with the java implementation of slice and unslice.

Hi Vivek,

I have verified this patch locally, and there're some issues with it.

After I applied this patch and ran the gen-tests.sh script again, the generated java test files are changed. They should keep the same as before. Did you modify the generated java test files manually?  Before this patch, the java test files are generated by gen-test.sh totally.

In addition, I also want to know how you add scalar functions like

  static byte[] slice(byte[] a, int origin, int idx) {

to the java files. I couldn't find the definitions in any template files you modified.

Regards,
Qi Feng
