Extract/Insert Java API Modifications for VectorAPI

[Rukmannagari, Shravya]

Hi Paul,
Please find the webrev below which leaves the existing definition of extract/insert for *MaxVector as is. 
http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~srukmannagar/VectorAPI_vectorExtractInsert/webrev.02/

Thanks,
Shravya.

Can we leave the existing code in place for *MaxVector?
