[PATCH v1] xen/riscv: add H extenstion to -march



H provides additional instructions and CSRs that control the new stage of
address translation and support hosting a guest OS in virtual S-mode
(VS-mode).

According to the Unprivileged Architecture (version 20240411) specification:
```
Table 74 summarizes the standardized extension names. The table also defines
the canonical order in which extension names must appear in the name string,
with top-to-bottom in table indicating first-to-last in the name string, e.g.,
RV32IMACV is legal, whereas RV32IMAVC is not.
```
According to Table 74, the h extension is placed last in the one-letter
extensions name part of the ISA string.

`h` is a standalone extension based on the patch [1] but it wasn't so
before.
As the minimal supported GCC version to build Xen for RISC-V is 12.2.0,
and for that version, h is still considered a prefix for the hypervisor
extension but the name of hypervisor extension must be more then 1 letter
extension, a workaround ( with using `hh` as an H extension name ) is
implemented as otherwise the following compilation error will occur:
 error: '-march=rv64gc_h_zbb_zihintpause': name of hypervisor extension
        must be more than 1 letter

After GCC version 13.1.0, the commit [1] introducing H extension support
allows us to drop the workaround with `hh` as hypervisor extension name
and use only one h in -march.

To implement this, the h-extension-name is introduced, which is filled with
hh or h depending on the GCC version.
