Enable SME support in gdbserver by adjusting the usual fields. There is
not much to this patch because the code is either in gdb or it is shared
between gdbserver and gdb. One exception is the bump to gdbserver's
PBUFSIZ from 18432 to 131104.
Since the ZA register can be quite big (256 * 256 bytes), the g/G remote
packet will also become quite big
From gdbserver/tdesc.cc:init_target_desc, I estimated the new size should
be at least (2 * 256 * 256 + 32), which yields 131104.
It is also unlikely we will find a process starting up with SVL set to 256.
Ideally we'd adjust the packet size dynamically based on what we need, but
for now this should do.
Please note we have the same limitation for SME that we have for SVE, and
that is the fact gdbserver cannot communicate vector length changes to gdb
via the remote protocol.
Thiago is working on this improvement, which hopefully will be able to be
adapted to SME in an easy way.

Instead of using static arrays, build the list of expedited registers
dynamically using a std::vector.
This refactor shouldn't cause any user-visible changes.
Regression-tested for aarch64-linux Ubuntu 22.04/20.04.

This commit is the result of running the gdb/copyright.py script,
which automated the update of the copyright year range for all
source files managed by the GDB project to be updated to include
year 2023.
Replace the sve bool member of aarch64_features with a vq member that
holds the vector quotient. It is zero if SVE is not present.
Add std::hash<> specialization and operator== so that aarch64_features
can be used as a key with std::unordered_map<>.
Change the various functions that create or lookup aarch64 target
descriptions to accept a const aarch64_features object rather than a
growing number of arguments.
Replace the multi-dimension tdesc_aarch64_list arrays used to cache
target descriptions with unordered_maps indexed by aarch64_feature.
This commit brings all the changes made by running gdb/copyright.py
as per GDB's Start of New Year Procedure.
For the avoidance of doubt, all changes in this commits were
performed by the script.
This patch adds a target description and feature "mte" for aarch64.
It includes one new register, tag_ctl, that can be used to configure the
tag generation rules and sync/async modes. It is 64-bit in size.
The patch also adjusts the code that creates the target descriptions at
runtime based on CPU feature checks.

I have moved the "-x c++" switch to only those rules that require it.
