[vector] New branch created vectorIntrinsics+mask

[Viswanathan, Sandhya]

Hi Ningsheng,

These are two independent components: Jatin's mainline patch and the part that I requested below from Xiaohong. No overlap between the two.
We want to move as fast as possible if we want to make JDK 17.

Best Regards,
Sandhya

Hi,

I see Jatin's JDK-8262355 (https://github.com/openjdk/jdk/pull/2768) is almost ready to merge. Can we get that patch synced into the new branch now, so that Xiaohong can rebase her code to that for review?

Thanks,
Ningsheng
