    libc: arm: Implement setjmp GCC backwards compatibility.
    
    When compiling Newlib for arm targets with GCC 12.1 onward, the
    passing of architecture extension information to the assembler is
    automatic, making the use of .fpu and .arch_extension directives
    in assembly files redundant.
    
    With older versions of GCC, however, these directives must be
    hard-coded into the `arm/setjmp.S' file to allow the assembly of
    instructions concerning the storage and subsequent reloading of the
    floating point registers to/from the jump buffer, respectively.
    
    This patch conditionally adds the `.fpu vfpxd' and `.arch_extension
    mve' directives based on compile-time preprocessor macros concerning
    GCC version and target architectural features, such that both the
    assembly and linking of setjmp.S succeeds for older versions of
    Newlib.
