riscv: Allocate user's vector context in the first-use trap
Vector unit is disabled by default for all user processes. Thus, a
process will take a trap (illegal instruction) into kernel at the first
time when it uses Vector. Only after then, the kernel allocates V
context and starts take care of the context for that user process.
