SEL (predicates)
Conditionally select elements from two predicates
Read active elements from the first source predicate and inactive elements from the second source predicate and place in the corresponding elements of the destination predicate. Does not set the condition flags.

<Pd>
Is the name of the destination scalable predicate register, encoded in the "Pd" field.
<Pg>
Is the name of the governing scalable predicate register, encoded in the "Pg" field.
<Pn>
Is the name of the first source scalable predicate register, encoded in the "Pn" field.
<Pm>
Is the name of the second source scalable predicate register, encoded in the "Pm" field.
