Add examples to vec_vslv and vec_vsrv
...
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.

Fix "Vector Registers as Part of VSRs" figure scaling
...
The "Vector Registers as Part of VSRs" figure was very large,
especially as it immediately follows an almost identical figure.
Before this change:
fig-fpr-vsr.png: PNG image data, 663 x 300...
fig-vr-vsr.png: PNG image data, 1367 x 608...
After this change:
fig-fpr-vsr.png: PNG image data, 663 x 300...
fig-vr-vsr.png: PNG image data, 645 x 287...
I chose this size because the actual side boundaries of the
table most closely match in size.
The scaling, using The GIMP, resulted in somewhat blurry lines,
but still quite clear enough, and good enough.
