1) Add native PN option '-march=native' to allow automatic detection.
Set 'arm_force_native_march' to 'true' in config/arm/meson.build
to use native PN option.
2) Add implementer_pn option for part num selection in cross compile
3) Add known Arm cortex PN support
4) Add known implementers' IDs (use generic flags/archs by default)
5) Sync build options with config/common_armv8a_linuxapp

Add various vendor specific cross build targets.
This can be verified by using linaro toolchain and running
meson build --cross-file config/arm/arm64_<cpu>_<platform>_<compiler>
In future more cross build targets can be added.

Added support for detecting march and mcpu by reading midr_el1 register.
The implementer, primary part number values read can be used to figure
out the underlying arm cpu.

Add files to enable compiling for ARM native/cross builds.
This can be tested by doing a cross-compile for armv8-a type using
the linaro gcc toolchain.
meson arm-build --cross-file aarch64_cross.txt
ninja -C arm-build
where aarch64_cross.txt contained the following
[binaries]
c = 'aarch64-linux-gnu-gcc'
cpp = 'aarch64-linux-gnu-cpp'
ar = 'aarch64-linux-gnu-ar'
[host_machine]
system = 'linux'
cpu_family = 'aarch64'
cpu = 'armv8-a'
endian = 'little'
