Description
I would like to suggest the addition of `intersperse :: a -> Vector a -> Vector a` to the API.
I have a prototype that I reuse in my projects, that reads:
```haskell
intercalateVec :: Text -> Vector Text -> Vector Text
intercalateVec sep vector =
if V.null vector
then vector
else V.tail $ V.concatMap (\word -> V.fromList [sep, word]) vector
```
But I would be interested to know if a better implementation is possible.

Research direction
Review the vector package's existing Vector API and the supplied intercalateVec prototype first. Determine the intended behavior of intersperse, including empty and non-empty vectors, and compare possible implementations before proposing the API addition. Completion should include an agreed implementation and validation of its behavior.
