LDFF1SB (scalar plus scalar)
Contiguous load first-fault signed bytes to vector (scalar index)
Contiguous load with first-faulting behavior of signed bytes to elements of a vector register from the memory address generated by a 64-bit scalar base and scalar index which is added to the base address. After each element access the index value is incremented, but the index register is not updated. Inactive elements will not cause a read from Device memory or signal a fault, 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.

Is the 64-bit name of the general-purpose base register or stack pointer, encoded in the "Rn" field.
<Xm>
Is the optional 64-bit name of the general-purpose offset register, defaulting to XZR, encoded in the "Rm" field.
