Add methods to load/store a byte vector from/to boolean[].
A boolean value is converted to a byte value by way of the expression (byte) b ? 1 : 0, where b is the boolean value.
A byte value is converted to a boolean value by way of the expression (b & 1) != 0 ? true : false, where b is the byte value.
The testing is partially covered. Further tests need to be added for gather/scatter load/stores. However, existing gather/scatter tests are not part of the load/store test templates, and i would like to make that so before adding such tests.
