On some architectures, vector types may have a different ABI depending
on whether the relevant target features are enabled. (The ABI when the
feature is disabled is often not specified, but LLVM implements some
de-facto ABI.)
As discussed in rust-lang/lang-team#235, this turns out to very easily
lead to unsound code.
This commit makes it a post-monomorphization future-incompat warning to
declare or call functions using those vector types in a context in which
the corresponding target features are disabled, if using an ABI for
which the difference is relevant. This ensures that these functions are
always called with a consistent ABI.
