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.
This is the first commit regarding the optional mask agnostic
behavior. Follow-up commits will add this optional behavior
for all rvv instructions.

Vector strided operations access the first memory element at the base address,
and then access subsequent elements at address increments given by the byte
offset contained in the x register specified by rs2.
Vector unit-stride operations access elements stored contiguously in memory
starting from the base effective address. It can been seen as a special
case of strided operations.
