[v9, 09/10] riscv: vector: use kmem_cache to manage vector context

The allocation size of thread.vstate.datap is always riscv_v_vsize. So
it is possbile to use kmem_cache_* to manage the allocation. This gives
users more information regarding allocation of vector context via
/proc/slabinfo. And it potentially reduces the latency of the first-use
trap because of the allocation caches.
