From: Deepak Gupta <debug at rivosinc.com>

envcfg CSR defines enabling bits for cache management instructions and soon
will control enabling for control flow integrity and pointer masking features.

Control flow integrity enabling for forward cfi and backward cfi is controlled
via envcfg and thus need to be enabled on per thread basis.

This patch creates a place holder for envcfg CSR in `thread_info` and adds
logic to save and restore on trap entry and exits.
