Summary:
To reduce the count of FPU context switching will result at a
performance improve with system. it need to balance between
the using of FPU and counts of FPU trap
the PR submit a base method to see performance counts for
the FPU with NuttX procfs
Please read README.txt at chapter of FPU Support and Performance
for more information

Summary
For ARM64 architecture, the arch timer is 64-bit,
the CONFIG_SYSTEM_TIME64 need to be enabled just like
x86_64 and risc-v 64

Summary:
The aarch64 have EL0~El3 execute level and NS/S (security state),
the NuttX should be execute at EL1 in NS(ARmv8-A) or S(ARmv8-R)
state. but booting NuttX have different ELs and state while with
different platform, if NuttX runing at wrong ELs or state it will
be not normal anymore. So we need to print something in arm64_head.S
to debug this situation.
Enabling this option will need to implement up_earlyserialinit and
up_lowputc functions just you see in qemu, if you not sure,
keeping the option disable.

Currently NuttX on Arm64 supports Generic Interrupt Controller (GIC) Versions 3 and 4: [`arm64_gicv3.c`](https://github.com/apache/incubator-nuttx/blob/master/arch/arm64/src/common/arm64_gicv3.c), [`arm64_gic.h`](https://github.com/apache/incubator-nuttx/blob/master/arch/arm64/src/common/arm64_gic.h). This PR adds support for GIC Version 2, which is needed by [Pine64 PinePhone](https://lupyuen.github.io/articles/interrupt) based on Allwinner A64 SoC.
This 64-bit implementation of GIC v2 is mostly identical to the existing GIC v2 for 32-bit Armv7-A ([`armv7-a/arm_gicv2.c`](https://github.com/apache/incubator-nuttx/blob/master/arch/arm/src/armv7-a/arm_gicv2.c), [`armv7-a/gic.h`](https://github.com/apache/incubator-nuttx/blob/master/arch/arm/src/armv7-a/gic.h)), with minor modifications to support 64-bit Registers (Interrupt Context).
- `arch/arm64/Kconfig`: Under "ARM64 Options", we added an integer option `ARM_GIC_VERSION` ("GIC version") that selects the GIC Version. Valid values are 2, 3 and 4, default is 3.
- `arch/arm64/src/common/arm64_gicv2.c`: Implements 64-bit GIC v2 based on 32-bit [`armv7-a/arm_gicv2.c`](https://github.com/apache/incubator-nuttx/blob/master/arch/arm/src/armv7-a/arm_gicv2.c) and [`armv7-a/gic.h`](https://github.com/apache/incubator-nuttx/blob/master/arch/arm/src/armv7-a/gic.h), modified to support 64-bit Registers (Interrupt Context).
Function and Macro Names have not been changed, for easier cross-referencing between the 32-bit and 64-bit implementations of GIC v2.
- `arch/arm64/src/common/arm64_gicv3.c`: Added Conditional Compilation for GIC v3. This file will not be compiled if `ARM_GIC_VERSION` is 2.
- `arch/arm64/src/common/arm64_gic.h`: Added the Version Identifier for GIC v2. At startup we read the GIC Version from hardware and verify that it matches `ARM_GIC_VERSION`.
- `arch/arm64/include/qemu/chip.h`: Added the QEMU Base Addresses for GIC v2.
- `arch/arm64/src/common/Make.defs`: Added the source file that implements GIC v2.
- `boards/arm64/qemu/qemu-armv8a/README.txt`: Added the documentation for testing GIC v2 with QEMU.
- `boards/arm64/qemu/qemu-armv8a/configs/nsh_gicv2/defconfig`: Added the Board Configuration `qemu-armv8a:nsh_gicv2` for testing GIC v2 with QEMU. Identical to `qemu-armv8a:nsh`, except that `ARM_GIC_VERSION` is 2.
This change adds the following:
- Rename the board configuration name from qemu-a53 to qemu-v8a.
- Add the configurations for Cortex-A57 and Cortex-A72.
