LDFF1B (vector plus immediate)
Gather load first-fault unsigned bytes to vector (immediate index)
Gather load with first-faulting behavior of unsigned bytes to active elements of a vector register from memory addresses generated by a vector base plus immediate index. The index is in the range 0 to 31. Inactive elements will not cause a read from Device memory or signal faults, and are set to zero in the destination vector.
This instruction is illegal when executed in Streaming SVE mode, unless FEAT_SME_FA64 is implemented and enabled.

<Zt>
Is the name of the scalable vector register to be transferred, encoded in the "Zt" field.
<Pg>
Is the name of the governing scalable predicate register P0-P7, encoded in the "Pg" field.
<Zn>
Is the name of the base scalable vector register, encoded in the "Zn" field.
<imm>
Is the optional unsigned immediate byte offset, in the range 0 to 31, defaulting to 0, encoded in the "imm5" field.
