JIT: ARM64 - Generate constructive forms of ExtractVector and Splice #103850
Description
See PRs:
ExtractVector - #103567
Splice - #103567
So the summary docs here only covers the "Destructive" form and not the "Constructive form" as seen in https://docsmirror.github.io/A64/2023-06/ext_z_zi.html
Regarding using a constructive variant. Not sure how to mark explicit op2 and op3 as needing consecutive registers. The current intrinsics with consecutive registers have a tuple in a single op. Here we have two separate args in the API.
I might have to spend some time in figuring out how to make sure that when op2 gets register Zn, force op3 to get Zn+1 given that they are 2 different operands. I think for simplicity, lets add just the destructive version of SPLICE and open an issue to add constructive version post .NET 9.

Similar to the CreateBreak APIs, we could explicitly support this via an API call. If the result of #117722 is positive, then we should raise an API issue for this too.
