The new version of the patch addresses the suggestion given by Richard Handerson
here:

https://patchew.org/QEMU/20240717153040.11073-1-paolo.savini@embecosm.com/20240717153040.11073-2-paolo.savini@embecosm.com/#aff5f930-d291-4ff5-8f24-53291059d59a@linaro.org

about the ineffectiveness of the optimization of the load/store loop for small
vector and data sizes when QEMU is in system mode.

Changes:
- Wrap the optimization of simple RISC-V vector unit-stride loads and stores into a user mode configuration directive.
