This looks quite launchable. radial_gradient3, min of 100 samples:
N5: 985µs -> 946µs
MBP: 395µs -> 279µs
On my MBP, most of the meat looks like it's now in reading the cache and writing to dst one color at a time. Is that something we could do in float math rather than with a lookup table?

As used today, SkNi is used in bool-y contexts. This keeps that, but under a
new name, SkNb. This makes room for a new SkNi that's focused on integer-y
things like loads, stores, arithmetic, etc.
The main reason to split these is that we want different specializations for
each use case: for bools, it's important for us to specialize 32- and 64-bit to
support efficient float- and double- comparisons, but for integer work we're
more likely to be looking at 8- and 16- bit lanes. Keeping these use cases
siloed helps me manage the compexity of the backend NEON and SSE code.

The primary feature this delivers is SkNf and SkNd for arbitrary power-of-two N. Non-specialized types or types larger than 128 bits should now Just Work (and we can drop in a specialization to make them faster). Sk4s is now just a typedef for SkNf<4, SkScalar>; Sk4d is SkNf<4, double>, Sk2f SkNf<2, float>, etc.
This also makes implementing new specializations easier and more encapsulated. We're now using template specialization, which means the specialized versions don't have to leak out so much from SkNx_sse.h and SkNx_neon.h.
This design leaves us room to grow up, e.g to SkNf<8, SkScalar> == Sk8s, and to grown down too, to things like SkNi<8, uint16_t> == Sk8h.
To simplify things, I've stripped away most APIs (swizzles, casts, reinterpret_casts) that no one's using yet. I will happily add them back if they seem useful.
You shouldn't feel bad about using any of the typedef Sk4s, Sk4f, Sk4d, Sk2s, Sk2f, Sk2d, Sk4i, etc. Here's how you should feel:
- Sk4f, Sk4s, Sk2d: feel awesome
- Sk2f, Sk2s, Sk4d: feel pretty good
No public API changes.
