> Add a reduce_mul intrinsic SVE specialization for >= 256-bit long vectors. It multiplies halves of the source vector using SVE instructions to get to a 128-bit long vector that fits into a SIMD&FP register. After that point, existing ASIMD implementation is used.

@mikabl-arm you can create a PR with this change against https://github.com/openjdk/jdk. Since the Vector API is incubating in the jdk/master repo we prefer to target such changes as this to that repo.

The panama-vector repo is then used for larger more speculative changes, rather than accumulating smaller changes into a larger harder to review PR to jdk/master later on.
