[PATCH v3] arm64/signal: Clean up SVE/SME feature checking inconsistency

Currently when restoring signal state we check to see if SVE is supported
in restore_sigframe() but check to see if SVE is supported inside
restore_sve_fpsimd_context(). This makes no real difference since SVE is
always supported in systems with SME but looks a bit untidy and makes
things slightly harder to follow, move the SVE check next to the SME one
in restore_sve_fpsimd_context().

v3:
 - Make stub function WARN and error if it ever ends up being called.
v2:
 - Add a stub restore_sve_fpsimd_context() to hopefully fix an
   allnoconfig issue, I can't reproduce locally.
