According to v-spec, mask agnostic behavior can be either kept as
undisturbed or set elements' bits to all 1s. To distinguish the
difference of mask policies, QEMU should be able to simulate the mask
agnostic behavior as "set mask elements' bits to all 1s".

There are multiple possibility for agnostic elements according to
v-spec. The main intent of this patch-set tries to add option that
can distinguish between mask policies. Setting agnostic elements to
all 1s allows QEMU to express this.

The following instructions that are always unmasked and not affected:

- Vector add-with-carry and subtract-with-borrow instructions
- Vector merge and move instructions
- Vector reduction instructions
- Vector mask-register logical instructions
- `vcompress`

This patch set is based on v15 of patch set "Add tail agnostic behavior
for
rvv instructions".
Based on: <165220137795.17881.11560413809338015947-0@git.sr.ht>

v2 updates:
- Rebase upon changes of the tail agnostic patch-set
- Minor change for vector load/store instructions
