[Sema][AArch64] Add parsing support for arm_sve_vector_bits attribute
Summary:
This patch implements parsing support for the 'arm_sve_vector_bits' type
attribute, defined by the Arm C Language Extensions (ACLE, version 00bet5,
section 3.7.3) for SVE [1].
The purpose of this attribute is to define fixed-length (VLST) versions
of existing sizeless types (VLAT). For example:
#if __ARM_FEATURE_SVE_BITS==512
typedef svint32_t fixed_svint32_t __attribute__((arm_sve_vector_bits(512)));
#endif
Creates a type 'fixed_svint32_t' that is a fixed-length version of
'svint32_t' that is normal-sized (rather than sizeless) and contains
exactly 512 bits. Unlike 'svint32_t', this type can be used in places
such as structs and arrays where sizeless types can't.
Implemented in this patch is the following:
* Defined and tested attribute taking single argument.
* Checks the argument is an integer constant expression.
* Attribute can only be attached to a single SVE vector or predicate
type, excluding tuple types such as svint32x4_t.
* Added the `-msve-vector-bits=<bits>` flag. When specified the
`__ARM_FEATURE_SVE_BITS__EXPERIMENTAL` macro is defined.
* Added a language option to store the vector size specified by the
`-msve-vector-bits=<bits>` flag. This is used to validate `N ==
__ARM_FEATURE_SVE_BITS`, where N is the number of bits passed to the
attribute and `__ARM_FEATURE_SVE_BITS` is the feature macro defined under
the same flag.
The `__ARM_FEATURE_SVE_BITS` macro will be made non-experimental in the final
patch of the series.
