> Hi,
> 
> I've added support for new vector operations for compressing bits of integral vector types(Byte/Short/Integer/Long).
> The implementation is based on Compress or Generalized Extract mentioned in Hackers Delight by Henry S. Warren, Jr.
> The implementation does the following: given a mask and the number to be compressed, the bits of the number corresponding to the set mask bit are selected and compressed. 
> 
> Currently, this PR addresses only Java changes for compress bits operation. I've also updated the test framework.
> Do review and share feedback.

Smita Kamath has updated the pull request incrementally with one additional commit since the last revision:

  1) Removed compress bits implementation for byte and short
  2) Added expand bits operation for int and long 3) Addressed review comments about code style 4) updated tests
