[Clang] Add __builtin_vectorelements to get number of elements in vector

+To determine the number of elements in a vector, use ``__builtin_vectorelements()``.
+For fixed-sized vectors, e.g., defined via ``__attribute__((vector_size(N)))`` or ARM
+NEON's vector types (e.g., ``uint16x8_t``), this returns the constant number of
+elements at compile-time. For scalable vectors, e.g., SVE or RISC-V V, the number of
+elements is not known at compile-time and is determined at runtime. This builtin can
+be used, e.g., to increment the loop-counter in vector-type agnostic loops.

 *Elementwise Builtins*
 
 Each builtin returns a vector equivalent to applying the specified operation

 Non-comprehensive list of changes in this release
 -------------------------------------------------
 
+* Clang now has a ``__builtin_vectorelements()`` function that determines the number of elements in a vector.
+  For fixed-sized vectors, e.g., defined via ``__attribute__((vector_size(N)))`` or ARM NEON's vector types
+  (e.g., ``uint16x8_t``), this returns the constant number of elements at compile-time.
+  For scalable vectors, e.g., SVE or RISC-V V, the number of elements is not known at compile-time and is
