Subject: [PATCH v2 8/8] riscv: Add PLATFORM_SUPPORTS_RISCV_ISA_ZBS Kconfig
 option

Zbs can optimize kernel instruction sequences. Add a config option
PLATFORM_SUPPORTS_RISCV_ISA_ZBS that allows arbitrary Zbs instruction
sequences to be emitted by the compiler.

The existing "RISCV_ISA_ZBS" option is repurposed to be used to by kernel
code to determine if either PLATFORM_MAY_SUPPORT_RISCV_ISA_ZBS or
PLATFORM_SUPPORTS_RISCV_ISA_ZBS has been set.
