 What is going on here is that the option is provided to have different
 source and destination subvector lengths, by exploiting redundancy in
 the Swizzle Immediate.
 
-Example 1:
-
-A SUBVL of 2 with a Swizzle "ZW00" (or anything
-in the top 2 swizzle positions) allows for copying any two elements
-from a vec4 into a vec2.

-Example 2:
-
-A SUBVL of 2 with a Swizzle "XX0." allows for copying from a vec3
-to a vec2
-
-Example 3:
-
-A SUBVL of 3 with a Swizzle "YX.." allows a vec2 to be copied to a vec3
