[ Upstream commit d87c828daa7ead9763416f75cc416496969cf1dc ]

The FEAT_SVE2p1 is indicated by ID_AA64ZFR0_EL1.SVEver. However,
the BFADD requires the FEAT_SVE_B16B16, which is indicated by
ID_AA64ZFR0_EL1.B16B16. This could cause the test to incorrectly
fail on a CPU that supports FEAT_SVE2.1 but not FEAT_SVE_B16B16.

LD1Q Gather load quadwords which is decoded from SVE encodings and
implied by FEAT_SVE2p1.

Thanks to -Waddress, the compiler warns that the ksft_test_result()
invocations in the arm64 tpidr2 selftest are always true. Oops.

Fix the test by, err, actually running the test functions.

wait4() is deprecated, non-standard and about to be removed from nolibc.

Switch to the equivalent waitpid() call.

Some build environments for the selftests are not picking up the newly
added AT_HWCAP3 when using the libc headers, even with headers_install
(which we require already for the arm64 selftests).  As a quick fix add
local definitions of the constant to tools use it, while auxvec.h is
installed with some toolchains it needs some persuasion to get picked up.

Recent work by Thomas Weißschuh means that it is now possible to use
kselftest.h with nolibc. Convert the tpidr2 test which is nolibc specific
to use kselftest.h, making it look more standard and ensuring it gets the
benefit of any work done on kselftest.h.
