I have two concerns over the choice of the option form/name.
Firstly, there's an `-mabi=` option that is used to select for ABI extensions. The choice of using an `-mabi=` suboption for selecting between the extended vector ABI and the default vector ABI should be considered.
Secondly, the `vecnvol` name does not allude to its relation with the vector-extended ABI.
`-mabi=aixvecextabi` was suggested when I discussed this with someone who is familiar with GCC. The choice of `extabi` at the end is to match the spelling of the `__EXTABI__` macro.
