  The following series enables SME 2 (Scalable Matrix Extension 2) support for
AArch64 gdb and gdbserver.

SME2 expands on SME by adding a predicate register of 512 bits named ZT0.

At a high level, this series does the following:

- Adds support for the ZT0 register and adds a new target description feature
  for it.
- Core file support (depends on binutils patches).
- Signal frame context support.
- Native Linux handling of the new NT_ARM_ZT register set.

This series depends on the SME series, and should be applied on top of that
one.
