kselftest/arm64: Add tests for TPIDR2



The Scalable Matrix Extension adds a new system register TPIDR2 intended to
be used by libc for its own thread specific use, add some kselftests which
exercise the ABI for it.

Since this test should with some adjustment work for TPIDR and any other
similar registers added in future add tests for it in a separate
directory rather than placing it with the other floating point tests,
nothing existing looked suitable so I created a new test directory
called "abi".

Since this feature is intended to be used by libc the test is built as
freestanding code using nolibc so we don't end up with the test program
and libc both trying to manage the register simultaneously and
distrupting each other. As a result of being written using nolibc rather
than using hwcaps to identify if SME is available in the system we check
for the default SME vector length configuration in proc, adding hwcap
support to nolibc seems like disproportionate effort and didn't feel
entirely idiomatic for what nolibc is trying to do.
