[PATCH v2 2/4] xen/arm: Add sb instruction support



This patch is adding sb instruction support when it is supported by a
CPU on arm64.
A new cpu feature capability system is introduced to enable alternative
code using sb instruction when it is supported by the processor. This is
decided based on the isa64 system register value and use a new hardware
capabitility ARM64_HAS_SB.

The sb instruction is encoded using its hexadecimal value to avoid
recursive macro and support old compilers not having support for sb
instruction.

Arm32 instruction support is added but it is not enabled at the moment
due to the lack of hardware supporting it.

Changes in v2:
- fix commit message
- add comment to explain the extra nop
- add support for arm32 and move macro back to arm generic header
- fix macro comment indentation
- introduce cpu feature system instead of using errata
