LoongArch: Add Loongson Binary Translation (LBT) extension support

Loongson Binary Translation (LBT) is used to accelerate binary translation,
which contains 4 scratch registers (scr0 to scr3), x86/ARM eflags (eflags)
and x87 fpu stack pointer (ftop).

This patch support kernel to save/restore these registers, handle the LBT
exception and maintain sigcontext.

LoongArch: Add vector extensions support

Add LoongArch's vector extensions support, which including 128bit LSX
(i.e., Loongson SIMD eXtension) and 256bit LASX (i.e., Loongson Advanced
SIMD eXtension).

Linux kernel doesn't use vector itself, it only handle exceptions and
context save/restore. So it only needs a subset of these instructions:

* Vector load/store: vld vst vldx vstx xvld xvst xvldx xvstx
* 8bit-elements move: vpickve2gr.b xvpickve2gr.b vinsgr2vr.b xvinsgr2vr.b
* 16bit-elements move: vpickve2gr.h xvpickve2gr.h vinsgr2vr.h xvinsgr2vr.h
* 32bit-elements move: vpickve2gr.w xvpickve2gr.w vinsgr2vr.w xvinsgr2vr.w
* 64bit-elements move: vpickve2gr.d xvpickve2gr.d vinsgr2vr.d xvinsgr2vr.d
* Elements permute: vpermi.w vpermi.d xvpermi.w xvpermi.d xvpermi.q

Introduce AS_HAS_LSX_EXTENSION and AS_HAS_LASX_EXTENSION to avoid non-
vector toolchains complains unsupported instructions.
