This is change 6 of 9 that fix problems with the specification of the vec class. An implementation that follows the existing specification would not accept common code patterns and would not pass the CTS. None of the existing implementations actually follow the existing specification.

This change clarifies the set of legal data types for a vec element and also clarifies what sycl::byte is.

These changes correspond to slides 23 - 25 and 28 of the presentation that was discussed in the WG meetings.
