arch: add ARCH_HAS_KERNEL_FPU_SUPPORT
Several architectures provide an API to enable the FPU and run floating-point SIMD code in kernel space. However, the function names, header locations, and semantics are inconsistent across architectures, and FPU support may be gated behind other Kconfig options. provide a standard way for architectures to declare that kernel space FPU support is available. Architectures selecting this option must implement what is currently the most common API (kernel_fpu_begin() and kernel_fpu_end(), plus a new function kernel_fpu_available()) and provide the appropriate CFLAGS for compiling floating-point C code.
