[PATCH 7/8] riscv: Add PLATFORM_SUPPORTS_RISCV_ISA_ZBC Kconfig option

Zbc can optimize kernel instruction sequences. Add a config option
PLATFORM_SUPPORTS_RISCV_ISA_ZBC that allows arbitrary Zbc instruction
sequences to be emitted by the compiler.

+ Adds "zbc" to the ISA subsets that the toolchain is allowed to emit

+ Linux binary. This option produces a kernel that will not run on
