Implements a simple bump allocator for TYP_SIMD and TYP_MASK. Locals are allocated to this space when lvaIsUnknownSizeLocal is true for the variable.

The frame is implemented on ARM64 as two homogenenous blocks containing either TYP_SIMD or TYP_MASK locals. The x19 register is reserved for addressing locals in the block. Updates codegen for SVE memory transfer instructions to accept indices in multiples of the vector length (or VL / 8 for masks) instead of deriving them from the size of the local.
