[PATCH 4/4] RISC-V: add support for vendor-extensions via AT_BASE_PLATFORM and xthead

From: Heiko Stuebner <heiko.stuebner at vrull.eu>
T-Head cores support a number of own ISA extensions that also include
optimized instructions which could benefit userspace to improve
performance.
Extensions supported by current T-Head cores are:
* XTheadBa - bitmanipulation instructions for address calculation
* XTheadBb - conditional basic bit-manipulation instructions
* XTheadBs - instructions to access a single bit in a register
* XTheadCmo - cache management operations
* XTheadCondMov - conditional move instructions
* XTheadFMemIdx - indexed memory operations for floating-point registers
* XTheadFmv - double-precision floating-point high-bit data transmission
intructions for RV32
* XTheadInt - instructions to reduce the code size of ISRs and/or the
interrupt latencies that are caused by ISR entry/exit code
* XTheadMac - multiply-accumulate instructions
* XTheadMemIdx - indexed memory operations for GP registers
* XTheadMemPair - two-GPR memory operations
* XTheadSync - multi-core synchronization instructions
In-depth descriptions of these extensions can be found on
https://github.com/T-head-Semi/thead-extension-spec
Support for those extensions was merged into the relevant toolchains
so userspace programs can select necessary optimizations when needed.
So a mechanism to the isa-string generation to export vendor-extension
lists via the errata mechanism and implement it for T-Head C9xx cores.
This exposes these vendor extensions then both in AT_BASE_PLATFORM
and /proc/cpuinfo.
