aarch64: Give hint for -mcpu options that match -march instead
We should redirect users of the erroneous -mcpu=armv8.2-a to use -march instead. There is an equivalent hint for -march used with a CPU name. Bootstrapped and tested on aarch64-none-linux-gnu. gcc/ChangeLog: * config/aarch64/aarch64.cc (aarch64_validate_mcpu): Add hint to use -march if the argument matches that. gcc/testsuite/ChangeLog: * gcc.target/aarch64/spellcheck_11.c: New test.
