This is a preparation to a change on gebp_traits, where a new template argument will be introduced to dictate the packet size, so it won't be bound to the current/max packet size only anymore. By having packet types defined early on gebp_traits, one has now to act on packet types, not scalars anymore, for the enum values defined on that class. One approach for reaching the vectorizable/size properties one needs there could be getting the packet's scalar again with unpacket_traits<>, then the size/Vectorizable enum entries from packet_traits<>. It turns out guards like "#ifndef EIGEN_VECTORIZE_AVX512" at AVX/PacketMath.h will hide smaller packet variations of packet_traits<> for some types (and it makes sense to keep that). In other words, one can't go back to the scalar and create a new PacketType, as this will always lead to the maximum packet type for the architecture. The less costly/invasive solution for that, thus, is to add the vectorizable info on every unpacket_traits struct as well.
