[RFC PATCH v3 2/4] riscv: cpufeature: Minimal parser for "riscv, isa" strings

Current hart ISA ("riscv,isa") parser don't correctly parse:

1. Multi-letter extensions
2. Version numbers

If we don't have those in "riscv,isa", that's fine.  However, many of
standardized multi-letter extensions are being frozen and ratified.
The current "riscv,isa" parser that is easily confused by multi-letter
extensions and "p" in version numbers can be a huge problem for adding
new extensions through the device tree.

Leaving it would create incompatible hacks and would make "riscv,isa"
value unreliable.

This commit implements minimal parser for "riscv,isa" strings.  With this,
we can safely ignore multi-letter extensions and version numbers.

Important Note:
  This commit does handle "H" as a single-letter extension.  This
  handling is not compliant with current version of RISC-V ISA Manual
  but will going to be in a few months.
