arm64/cpufeature: Use helper macro to specify ID register for capabilites
When defining which value to look for in a system register field we currently manually specify the register, field shift, width and sign and the value to look for. This opens the potential for error with for example the wrong field width or sign being specified, an enumeration value for a different similarly named field or letting something be initialised to 0. Since we now generate defines for all the ID registers we now have named constants for all of these things generated from the system register description, meaning that we can generate initialisation for all the fields used in matching from a minimal specification of register, field and match value. This is both shorter and eliminates or makes build failures several potential errors. No change in the generated binary.
