[BOOT-WRAPPER PATCH 2/3] aarch64: Enable use of FPMR for EL2 and below

FEAT_FPMR adds the FPMR register. Acceses to FPMR (whether direct or
indirect) trap to EL3 unless SCR_EL3.EnFPM is set, and so boot-wrapper
support is necessary.

Support for FEAT_FPMR was added to Linux in v6.8 without any
boot-wrapper support. Consequently when FPMR is enabled in a model, the
kernel will hang when attempting to write to the FPMR (e.g. when
entering userspace for the first time).

Add boot-wrapper support for FEAT_FPMR. As FPMR is not described in the
latest ARM ARM (ARM DDI 0487K.a), the relevant definitions are taken
from the 2024-09 release of the "Arm Architecture Registers" document,
ARM DDI 0601 (ID092424), which can be found at:

  https://developer.arm.com/documentation/ddi0601/2024-09/?lang=en

The ID_AA64PFR2_EL1 ID register has existed as reserved RES0 space since
ARMv8.0 but only recently gained a name, and so older assemblers may not
be able to encode ID_AA64PFR2_EL1 directly. Thus we need an explicit
definition of the sysreg encoding to support these assemblers.
