internal/cpu: expose ARM feature flags for FMA

This change exposes feature flags needed to implement an FMA intrinsic
on ARM CPUs via auxv's HWCAP bits. Specifically, it exposes HasVFPv4 to
detect if an ARM processor has the fourth version of the vector floating
point unit. The relevant instruction for this CL is VFMA, emitted in Go
as FMULAD.

Updates #26630.
