> With Float16 we need to differentiate b/w vector lane element type and 
> carrier type. while element type corresponds to exact type of lane i.e. 
> Float16.class, carrier type corresponds to the storage type required to 
> propagate IEEE 754 float16 values to inline expander.
> 
> Patch adds a new carrier type to existing LaneType structure and use it for 
> following purpose.
>  - To compute preferred shape of vector.
>  - To allocate vector backing storage during dummy vector and iota array 
> creation.
>  - Sanity checking to ensure vector lane type is a primitive type in inline 
> expander.
> 
> All existing Vector API jtreg test are passing with the patch.
> 
> Kindly review and share your feedback.
