      The following things need to be done:

      * The Power10+ pextd "optimization" needs to be removed because although it has fewer instructions, it causes a performance hit on actual hardware
      * Use a constant block to initialize vector registers. This will reduce the overhead of each call to the intrinsic
      * Introduce the xxpermx instruction so that it can be used in a Power10+ optimized decodeBlock table-based lookup
      * Implement the xxpermx table-based lookup for Power10+
