Anton pointed out this endianness issue with HVX,
and found this region length issue along the way.

v3:
* Changed the region-length test to be more consistent between scatter
and gather and focusing on just inside, outside, beyond the boundary.

Fixed in v2:
* byte access helpers now all use hexagon_ prefix.
* Predicate bytes are extracted from 32-bit words rather than 64-bit words,
  matching the host-native predicate layout.
* Gather only reads memory for lanes that are both in range and predicate
  enabled.  So dropped lanes cannot fault or otherwise access memory.
* The gather region-length test now places an out-of-range offset on an
  inaccessible page, verifying that a dropped lane performs no read.

Added v2 commits:
* fix for histogram predicates - were using the wrong size
* test to cover predicate byte permutation

  target/hexagon: fix HVX big-endian byte access
  target/hexagon: fix HVX scatter/gather region-length check
  tests/tcg/hexagon: add vgather/vscatter region-length tests
  target/hexagon: fix HVX predicate save size for histogram ops
  tests/tcg/hexagon: check the two HVX predicate build paths agree
