[PATCH v3 01/11] kselftest: arm64: introduce new boilerplate code

[Cristian Marussi <cristian.marussi@arm.com>]

Added a new arm64-specific empty subsystem amongst TARGETS of KSFT build
framework; once populated with testcases, it will be possible to build
and invoke the new KSFT TARGETS=arm64 related tests from the toplevel
Makefile in the usual ways.

Signed-off-by: Cristian Marussi <cristian.marussi@arm.com>

Reviewed the build instructions reported in the README, to be more
agnostic regarding user/device etc..

+KSelfTest ARM64
+===============
+
+- These tests are arm64 specific and so not built or run but just skipped
+  completely when env-variable ARCH is found to be different than 'arm64'
+  and `uname -m` reports other than 'aarch64'.
+
+- Holding true the above, ARM64 KSFT tests can be run:
+
+   + as standalone (example for signal tests)
+
+      $ make -C tools/testing/selftest/arm64/signal \
+		INSTALL_PATH=<your-installation-path> install
+
+      and then launching on the target device inside the installed path:
+
+      $ <your-installed-path>/test_arm64_signals.sh [-k | -v]
+
+   + within the KSelfTest framework using standard Linux top-level-makefile
+     targets:
+
+      $ make TARGETS=arm64 kselftest-clean
+      $ make TARGETS=arm64 kselftest
+
+   Further details on building and running KFST can be found in:
+     Documentation/dev-tools/kselftest.rst
+
+- Tests can depend on some arch-specific definitions which can be found in a
+  standard Kernel Headers installation in $(top_srcdir)/usr/include.
+  Such Kernel Headers are automatically installed (via make headers_install)
+  by KSFT framework itself in a dedicated directory when tests are launched
+  via KSFT itself; when running standalone, instead, a Warning is issued
+  if such headers cannot be found somewhere (we try to guess a few standard
+  locations anyway)
+
+- Some of these tests may be related to possibly not implemented ARMv8
+  features: depending on their implementation status on the effective HW
+  we'll expect different results. The tests' harness will take care to check
+  at run-time if the required features are supported and will act accordingly.
+  Moreover, in order to avoid any kind of compile-time dependency on the
+  toolchain (possibly due to the above mentioned not-implemented features),
+  we make strictly use of direct 'S3_ sysreg' raw-encoding while checking for
+  those features and/or lookin up sysregs.
