Add examples to vec_vslv and vec_vsrv

Browse Source 
vec_vslv and vec_vsrv are confusing in their own right and even more
so because they operate only with big-endian semantics.

Some examples are warranted.

Note that the respective examples are arranged such that the impact of
shifting in zero bits has a visible impact.
