[lldb][AArch64] Add SME2's ZT0 register (#70205)
SME2 is documented as part of the main SME supplement: https://developer.arm.com/documentation/ddi0616/latest/ The one change for debug is this new ZT0 register. This register contains data to be used with new table lookup instructions. It's size is always 512 bits (not scalable) and can be interpreted in many different ways depending on the instructions that use it. The kernel has implemented this as a new register set containing this single register. It always returns register data (with no header, unlike ZA which does have a header). https://docs.kernel.org/arch/arm64/sme.html ZT0 is only active when ZA is active (when SVCR.ZA is 1). In the inactive state the kernel returns 0s for its contents. Therefore lldb doesn't need to create 0s like it does for ZA. However, we will skip restoring the value of ZT0 if we know that ZA is inactive. As writing to an inactive ZT0 sets SVCR.ZA to 1, which is not desireable as it would activat...
