[SVE][LoopVectorize] Add support for extracting the last lane of a scalable vector

There are certain loops like this below:

  for (int i = 0; i < n; i++) {
    a[i] = b[i] + 1;
    *inv = a[i];
  }

that can only be vectorised if we are able to extract the last lane of the
vectorised form of 'a[i]'. For fixed width vectors this already works since
we know at compile time what the final lane is, however for scalable vectors
this is a different story. This patch adds support for extracting the last
lane from a scalable vector using a runtime determined lane value. I have
added support to VPIteration for runtime-determined lanes that still permit
the caching of values. I did this by introducing a new class called VPLane,
which describes the lane we're dealing with and provides interfaces to get
both the compile-time known lane and the runtime determined value. Whilst
doing this work I couldn't find any explicit tests for extracting the last
lane values of fixed width vectors so I added tests for both scalable and
fixed width vectors.
