[RFC] centralizing vector support info in the testsuite

Checks for vector instruction support are spreading throughout the testsuite. I'd like to pull the basic logic into a single place that can be referenced wherever it's needed. What's there now isn't always consistent and there might be new things we can do if the information is presented in a con
