Add some trivial hwcap validation which checks that /proc/cpuinfo and AT_HWCAP agree with each other and can verify that for extensions that can generate a SIGILL due to adding new instructions one appears or doesn't appear as expected. I've added SVE and SME, other capabilities can be added later if this gets merged. This isn't super exciting but on the other hand took very little time to write and should be handy when verifying that you wired up AT_HWCAP properly.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
