[PATCH -next v17 19/20] riscv: detect assembler support for .option arch

Some extensions use .option arch directive to selectively enable certain
extensions in parts of its assembly code. For example, Zbb uses it to
inform assmebler to emit bit manipulation instructions. However,
supporting of this directive only exist on GNU assembler and has not
landed on clang at the moment, making TOOLCHAIN_HAS_ZBB depend on
AS_IS_GNU.

While it is still under review at https://reviews.llvm.org/D123515, the
upcoming Vector patch also requires this feature in assembler. Thus,
provide Kconfig AS_HAS_OPTION_ARCH to detect such feature. Then
TOOLCHAIN_HAS_XXX will be turned on automatically when the feature land.
