[Mlir-commits] [mlir] [mlir][vector] Allow pointer types for `vector.from_elements` (PR #145517)

[Matthias Springer]

https://github.com/matthias-springer created https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/145517

The vector type allows element types that implement the `VectorElementTypeInterface`. `vector.splat` should allow any element type that is supported by the vector type.
