demote_f64x2_zero: Wasm SIMD conversion instruction

The demote_f64x2_zero SIMD conversion instruction converts the lanes of a v128 f64x2 value interpretation into an f32x4 value interpretation. The two higher lanes of the result are initialized to zero.

Try it

(module
  (import "console" "log" (func $log (param f32)))
  (func $main
    v128.const f64x2 0x3 0x3a

    f32x4.demote_f64x2_zero
    f32x4.extract_lane 1
    call $log ;; log the result
  )
  (start $main)
)
WebAssembly.instantiateStreaming(fetch("{%wasm-url%}"), { console });

Syntax
