      Add Assertion wrappers in VectorAPI jtreg framework to convert IEEE 754 float16 value to float value before invoking TestNG assertions.
      This is required for handling various representations of Float16 NaN values since float16ToFloat16 implementation preservers the mantissa bits.
      Without conversion to float reference and actual values of short type will undergo bit-level comparison by TestNG assertion routines.
