configure: aarch64: Support assembling the dotprod and i8mm arch extensions

These are available since ARMv8.4-a and ARMv8.6-a respectively,
but can also be available optionally since ARMv8.2-a.

Check if ".arch armv8.2-a" and ".arch_extension {dotprod,i8mm}" are
supported, and check if the instructions can be assembled.

Current clang versions fail to support the dotprod and i8mm
features in the .arch_extension directive, but do support them
if enabled with -march=armv8.4-a on the command line. (Curiously,
lowering the arch level with ".arch armv8.2-a" doesn't make the
extensions unavailable if they were enabled with -march; if that
changes, Clang should also learn to support these extensions via
.arch_extension for them to remain usable here.)
