[PATCHv2 03/12] arm64/cpufeature: add ARMv8.3 id_aa64isar1 bits

>From ARMv8.3 onwards, ID_AA64ISAR1 is no longer entirely RES0, and now
has four fields describing the presence of pointer authentication
functionality:

* APA - address authentication present, using an architected algorithm
* API - address authentication present, using an IMP DEF algorithm
* GPA - generic authentication present, using an architected algorithm
* GPI - generic authentication present, using an IMP DEF algorithm

This patch adds the requisite definitions so that we can identify the
presence of this functionality.

For the timebeing, the features are hidden from both KVM guests and
userspace. As marking them with FTR_HIDDEN only hides them from
userspace, they are also protected with ifdeffery on
CONFIG_ARM64_POINTER_AUTHENTICATION.
