[J3] Proposals for new intrinsic procedures

[Brad Richardson]

Thanks all for the suggestions, direction and background. I'll do scan
(or whatever we end up calling it) as one paper, and the other IEEE
procedures as one paper. If anybody has suggestions for the spelling of
INCLUSIVE_SCAN and EXCLUSIVE_SCAN let me know. I'll definitely have it
as a straw vote.

Regards,
Brad
