   This doesn't make any sense to me, it is 8 bits either way.
   
   But supporting _both_ signed and unsigned is a nonstarter for me, it is too 
much.  So if unsigned is better then remove the signed functions from 
VectorUtil and their associated vectorized methods completely. 
   
   Then I'm happy, we still have 6 similarity methods, just they use 
ZERO_EXTEND_B2I instead of B2I and so on.
