This adds the SIMD stash/unstash operations that we need to allow UEFI runtime services calls to call back into the kernel. The UEFI bindings for arm64 stipulate that the ordinary AAPCS rules apply, which means that code may use FP/NEON registers, and may also expect that the values of the callee saved registers q8 - q15 are preserved across function calls.
