front-end onto SIMD back-end operations, it makes sense to save gates by
allowing the ADD and MUL units to be able to optionally handle a batch
of 8-bit operations, or half the number of 16-bit operations, or a quarter
-of the number of 32-bit operations or just one 64-bit operation.
-In this way, a lot less gates are required than if they were separate units.
-The unit tests demonstrate that the code that Jacob has written provide
-RISC-V mul, mulh, mulhu and mulhsu functionality.
