    xen/riscv: introduce extension support check by compiler
    
    Currently, RISC-V requires two extensions: _zbb and _zihintpause.
    
    This patch introduces a compiler check to check if these extensions
    are supported.
    Additionally, it introduces the riscv/booting.txt file, which contains
    information about the extensions that should be supported by the platform.
    
    In the future, a feature will be introduced to check whether an extension
    is supported at runtime.
    However, this feature requires functionality for parsing device tree
    source (DTS), which is not yet available.

+System requirements
+===================
+
+The following extensions are expected to be supported by a system on which
+Xen is run:
+- Zbb:
+  RISC-V doesn't have a CLZ instruction in the base ISA.
+  As a consequence, __builtin_ffs() emits a library call to ffs() on GCC,
+  or a de Bruijn sequence on Clang.
+  Zbb extension adds a CLZ instruction, after which __builtin_ffs() emits
+  a very simple sequence.
+  The similar issue occurs with other __builtin_<bitop>, so it is needed to
+  provide a generic version of bitops in RISC-V bitops.h
+- Zihintpause:
+  On a system that doesn't have this extension, cpu_relax() should be
+  implemented properly.
