bfd/ELF: Core file support for AArch64 FPMR

The Floating Point Mode Register is a new register which controls the
behaviour of FP8 instructions. This is handled by the Linux kernel
through a new NT_ARM_FPMR register set.

This patch adds required code to support core file dumps with
NT_ARM_FPMR in them.
