change gather/scatter mask sizes to match data size not index/address size since that matches x86_64 #323

Description

@programmerjake

iirc x86_64 without avx512 is the only major isa that uses full-masks instead of bit-masks and has gather, so we should match it.

vgatherqps gathers f32 values using i32 mask elements and u64 indexes/addresses.
