Intel Short Vector Math Library (SVML) based intrinsics in native x86 assembly provide optimized implementation for Vector API transcendental and trigonometric methods.
These methods can be built into a separate library instead of being part of libjvm.so or jvm.dll.

The following changes are made:
   The source for these methods is placed in the jdk.incubator.vector module under src/jdk.incubator.vector/linux/native/libsvml and src/jdk.incubator.vector/windows/native/libsvml.
   The assembly source files are named as “*.S” and include files are named as “*.S.inc”.
   The corresponding build script is placed at make/modules/jdk.incubator.vector/Lib.gmk.
   Changes are made to build system to support dependency tracking for assembly files with includes.
   The built native libraries (libsvml.so/svml.dll) are placed in bin directory of JDK on Windows and lib directory of JDK on Linux.
   The C2 JIT uses the dll_load and dll_lookup to get the addresses of optimized methods from this library.

Build system changes and module library build scripts are contributed by Magnus (magnus.ihse.bursie@oracle.com).
