Speculative Store Bypassing Safe(FEAT_SSBS) is a feature present in
AArch32 state for Armv8 and is represented by ID_PFR2_EL1.SSBS
identification register.

This feature denotes the presence of PSTATE.ssbs bit and hence adding a
hwcap will enable the userspace to check it before trying to set/unset
this PSTATE.

This commit adds the ID feature bit detection, and uses elf_hwcap2
accordingly.

Floating point half-precision (FPHP) and Advanced SIMD half-precision
(ASIMDHP) are VFP features (FEAT_FP16) represented by MVFR1 identification register. These capabilities can optionally exist with VFPv3 and mandatory with VFPv4. Both these new features exist for Armv8 architecture in AArch32 state.

These hwcaps may be useful for the userspace to add conditional check
before trying to use FEAT_FP16 feature specific instructions.
