[RFC PATCH v2 37/41] arm64/sve: Enable default vector length control via procfs


This patch makes the default SVE vector length at exec() for user tasks
controllable via procfs, in /proc/cpu/sve_default_vector_length.

Limited effort is made to return sensible errors when writing the
procfs file, and anyway the value gets silently clamped to the
maximum VL supported by the platform: users should close and reopen
the file and read back to see the result.
