We still need two different helpers, since NEON and SVE2 get the
inputs from different locations within the source vector. However,
we can convert both to the same internal form for computation.
The sve2 helper is not used yet, but adding it with this patch
helps illustrate why the neon changes are helpful.

The gvec form will be needed for implementing SVE2.
Extend the implementation to operate on uint64_t instead of uint32_t.
Use a counted inner loop instead of terminating when op1 goes to zero,
looking toward the required implementation for ARMv8.4-DIT.

These instructions shift left or right depending on the sign
of the input, and 7 bits are significant to the shift. This
requires several masks and selects in addition to the actual
shifts to form the complete answer.
That said, the operation is still a small improvement even for
two 64-bit elements -- 13 vector operations instead of 2 * 7
integer operations.

Note that float16_to_float32 rightly squashes SNaN to QNaN.
But of course pickNaNMulAdd, for ARM, selects SNaNs first.
So we have to preserve SNaN long enough for the correct NaN
to be selected. Thus float16_to_float32_by_bits.

Fortunately, the functions affected are so far only called from SVE,
so there is no tail to be cleared. But as we convert more of AdvSIMD
to gvec, this will matter.
Backports commit d8efe78e8039511b95c23d75bb48eca6873fbb0f from qemu
For same-sign saturation, we have tcg vector operations. We can
compute the QC bit by comparing the saturated value against the
unsaturated value.
Backports commit 89e68b575e138d0af1435f11a8ffcd8779c237bd from qemu
Change the representation of this field such that it is easy
to set from vector code.
Backports commit a4d5846245c5e029e5aa3945a9bda1de1c3fedbf from qemu
Enhance the existing helpers to support SVE, which takes the
index from each 128-bit segment. The change has no effect
for AdvSIMD, since there is only one such segment.
Backports commit 18fc24057815bf3d956cfab892a2bc2344bd1dcb from qemu
For aa64 advsimd, we had been passing the pre-indexed vector.
However, sve applies the index to each 128-bit segment, so we
need to pass in the index separately.
For aa32 advsimd, the fp32 operation always has index 0, but
we failed to interpret the fp16 index correctly.
