Can you quickly summarize what tests you have, and what they test?

Looks like this is having vector changes?
And this is pre-existing: but why are we using `VECTOR_SIZE_ANY` here? Can we 
not know the vector size? Maybe we can introduce a new tag `max_float16` or 
`max_hf`. And do something like this:
`IRNode.VECTOR_SIZE + "min(max_float, max_hf)", "> 0"`

The downside with using `ANY` is that the exact size is not tested, and that 
might mean that the size is much smaller than ideal.
