* [AArch64] Fix +sve documentation

The documentation entry for the SVE feature incorrectly said that
it was enabled by default for ARMv8-A or later.  This patch fixes
that and also mentions that +sve implies +simd.  (It also implies
+fp, but that follows by transitivity.)

Tested on aarch64-linux-gnu.  OK for trunk and 2.28?

Thanks,
Richard
