Well we now have `zvl` which kinda solve the "min" problem at the frontend 
level.

Thinking about it again, though, maybe it's not such a bad thing to have clang 
emit min=<zvl>, max=2^16/RVVBitsPerBlock and then allow backend codegen flags 
to override that. Then the onus is clearly on the user not to do anything 
wrong. We could assert if the user-provided values are clearly at odds with the 
attribute?
