arm64/sysreg: allow *Enum blocks in SysregFields blocks



We'd like to support Enum/SignedEnum/UnsignedEnum blocks within
SysregFields blocks, so that we can define enumerations for sets of
registers. This isn't currently supported by gen-sysreg.awk due to the
way we track the active block, which can't handle more than a single
layer of nesting, which imposes an awkward requirement that when ending
a block we know what the parent block is when calling change_block()

Make this nicer by using a stack of active blocks, with block_push() to
start a block, and block_pop() to end a block. Doing so means that we
only need to check the active block at the start of parsing a line: for
the start of a block we can check the parent is valid, and for the end
of a block we check that the active block is valid.

This structure makes the block parsing simpler and makes it easy to
permit a block to live under several potential parents (e.g. by
permitting Enum to start when the active block is Sysreg or
SysregFields). It also permits further nesting, if we need that in
future.

To aid debugging, the stack of active blocks is reported for fatal
errors, and an error is raised if the file is terminated without ending
the active block. For clarity I've renamed the top-level element from
"None" to "Root".

The Fields element it intended only for use within Sysreg blocks, and
does not make sense within SysregFields blocks, and so remains forbidden
within a SysregFields block.

I've verified using sha1sum that this patch does not change the
current generated contents of <asm/sysreg-defs.h>.
