install.texi: Document --enable-decimal-float for AArch64
When I committed the patches to enable support for DFP on AArch64, I
forgot to update the installation documentation.
This patch adds AArch64 as needed (same as i386/x86_64).

Enable (or disable) support for the C decimal floating point extension
-that is in the IEEE 754-2008 standard. This is enabled by default only
-on PowerPC, i386, and x86_64 GNU/Linux systems. Other systems may also
-support it, but require the user to specifically enable it. You can
-optionally control which decimal floating point format is used (either
-@samp{bid} or @samp{dpd}). The @samp{bid} (binary integer decimal)
-format is default on i386 and x86_64 systems, and the @samp{dpd}
-(densely packed decimal) format is default on PowerPC systems.
