Multiplication operator example

As described in #21778, small loops get unrolled early on, which prevents the
loop vectoriser to optimise some small loops with a single call to a SIMD
intrinsic, like the SLP vectorizer does.

The attached code has the two test user functions vectorised by the SLP, but
not the out-of-line copy of the operator*.

I believe the SLP should recognise "return" as an entry point, just as valid as
a store, since functions will be called with either the values in registers on
in the stack, which can utilise the target's PCS standard to connect arguments
in a seamless fashion and avoid *any* unnecessary vector-load/store, or at
least detect the local pattern and have only one vector-load/store, instead of
using the back-end to merge loads/stores.</pre>
