[lldb][AArch64] Add isAArch64SMEFA64 check to SME testing (#68094)

FEAT_SME_FA64 (smefa64 in Linux cpuinfo) allows the use of the full A64
instruction set while in streaming SVE mode.

See https://developer.arm.com/documentation/ddi0616/latest/ for details.

This means for example if we want to write to the ffr register during or
use floating point registers while in streaming mode, we need this
extension.

I initially was using QEMU which has it by default, and switched to
Arm's FVP which does not. So this change adds a more strict check and
converts most of the tests to use that. It would be possible in some
cases to avoid the offending instructions but it would be a lot of
effort and liable to fail randomly as the C library changes.

It is also my assumption that the majority of systems will have smefa64
as QEMU has chosen to have. If I turn out to be wrong, we can make the
effort to get the tests working without smefa64.

`isAArch64SME` remains for some tests, which are as follows:
* `test_aarch64_dynamic_regset_config` merely checks for the presence of
a register set, which appears for any SME system not just one with
smefa64.
* `test_aarch64_dynamic_regset_config_sme_za_disabled` only needs the ZA
register and does not enter streaming mode.
* `test_sme_not_present` tests for the absence of the SME register set,
so must be skipped if any form of SME is present.
* Various tests in `TestSVERegisters.py` need to know if SME is present
at all to generate an expected SVCR value. Earlier in the callstack
something else checked `isAArch64SMEFA64` already.
* `TestAArch64LinuxTLSRegisters.py` needs to test the `tpidr2` register
if any form of SME is present. msr/mrs instructions are used to do this
and are allowed even if smefa64 is not present.

The LLVM Compiler Infrastructure

Welcome to the LLVM project!

This repository contains the source code for LLVM, a toolkit for the construction of highly optimized compilers, optimizers, and run-time environments.

The LLVM project has multiple components. The core of the project is itself called “LLVM”. This contains all of the tools, libraries, and header files needed to process intermediate representations and convert them into object files. Tools include an assembler, disassembler, bitcode analyzer, and bitcode optimizer.

C-like languages use the Clang frontend. This component compiles C, C++, Objective-C, and Objective-C++ code into LLVM bitcode -- and from there into object files, using LLVM.

Other components include: the libc++ C++ standard library, the LLD linker, and more.

Getting the Source Code and Building LLVM

Consult the Getting Started with LLVM page for information on building and running LLVM.

For information on how to contribute to the LLVM project, please take a look at the Contributing to LLVM guide.

Getting in touch

Join the LLVM Discourse forums, Discord chat, or #llvm IRC channel on OFTC.

The LLVM project has adopted a code of conduct for participants to all modes of communication within the project.
