arm64/sysreg: Add hwcap for SVE EBF16
SVE has a separate identification register indicating support for BFloat16 operations. Add a hwcap identifying support for EBF16 in this register, mirroring what we did for the non-SVE case. While there is currently an architectural requirement for BF16 support to be the same in SVE and non-SVE contexts there are separate identification registers this separate hwcap helps avoid issues if that requirement were to be relaxed in the future, we have already chosen to have a separate capability for base BF16 support.
