[RISCV] Use fractional LMULs for fixed length types smaller than riscv-v-vector-bits-min.

My thought process is that if v2i64 is an LMUL=1 type then v2i32
should be an LMUL=1/2 type. We limit the fractional LMUL so that
SEW=64 clips to LMUL=1, SEW=32 clips to LMUL=1/2, etc. This
ensures there's always a fractional LMUL available to truncate a type.
This does reduce the number of vsetvlis in some cases.

Some tests increase vsetvlis because the best container type for a
mask type is dependent on the LMUL+SEW that the mask was produced
from, but you can't tell that from the type. I think this is
something we need to solve this in the machine IR when optimizing
vsetvlis.
