FTR, I intentionally left that out, because if a programmer
wants to specify a byte order, it’s a pretty simple matter to
specify a mask also. You simply say:
Vector data = …;
data.intoByteArray(a, 0, bo, data.maskAll(true));
The presence of Vector::maskAll (like the presence of Vector::broadcast)
reduces the pressure to multiply out all the masked and unmasked variants
(or all broadcast-scalar and vector-lane-wise variants) of many API points.
