Contiguous prefetch bytes (immediate index)
Contiguous prefetch of byte elements from the memory address generated by a 64-bit scalar base and immediate index in the range -32 to 31 which is multiplied by the vector's in-memory size, irrespective of predication, and added to the base address.
The predicate may be used to suppress prefetches from unwanted addresses.

| <Pg> |
Is the name of the governing scalable predicate register P0-P7, encoded in the "Pg" field. |
| <Xn|SP> |
Is the 64-bit name of the general-purpose base register or stack pointer, encoded in the "Rn" field. |
| <imm> |
Is the optional signed immediate vector offset, in the range -32 to 31, defaulting to 0, encoded in the "imm6" field. |
