[PATCH v3 00/21] arm64/sme: Support SME 2 and SME 2.1

Arm have recently released versions 2 and 2.1 of the SME extension.
Among the features introduced by SME 2 is some new architectural state,
the ZT0 register. This series adds support for this and all the other
features of the new SME versions.

Since the architecture has been designed with the possibility of adding
further ZTn registers in mind the interfaces added for ZT0 are done with
this possibility in mind. As ZT0 is a simple fixed size register these
interfaces are all fairly simple, the main complication is that ZT0 is
only accessible when PSTATE.ZA is enabled. The memory allocation that we
already do for PSTATE.ZA is extended to include space for ZT0.

Due to textual collisions especially around the addition of hwcaps this
is based on the recently merged series "arm64: Support for 2022 data
processing instructions" but there is no meaningful interaction.

v3:
 - Rebase onto merged series for the 2022 architectur extensions.
 - Clarifications and typo fixes in the ABI documentation.
v2:
 - Add missing initialisation of user->zt in signal context parsing.
 - Change the magic for ZT signal frames to 0x5a544e01 (ZTN0).
