- Port existing HalfFloatVector and its concrete vector classes from vectorIntrinsics+fp16 to lworld+fp16.
- These new vector classes uses Float16 array as their backing storage.
- Idea is to enable intrinsificaiton of new HalfFloatVector operations and leverage existing Float16 auto-vectorization and backend support.

All existing VectorAPI tests are passing with the patch.

Best Regards,
Jatin

Follow up work:-
a) Jtreg suite extensions to cover HalfFloatVector operations.
b) Handle Float16 lane type in vector API inline expansion layer.
