Ensure that hwprobe does not flag "v" when xtheadvector is present.

Hmm, I think this is "dangerous". has_vector() is used across the kernel
now in several places for the in-kernel vector. I don't think that
has_vector() should return true for the T-Head stuff given that &
has_vector() should represent the ratified spec. I'll have to think
about this one and how nasty this makes any of the save/restore code
etc.

Yeah, my nose crinkled here as well. If you're having to do a
vendorish thing in this generic spot, then others may too, suggesting
perhaps this isn't the cleanest way to go about it. Ideally extensions
are all additive, rather than subtractive, I guess?

This was the "easiest" way to support this but I agree this is not
ideal. The vector code is naturally coupled with having support for
"v" and I wanted to leverage that. The other concern is all of the
ifdefs for having V enabled. I can make all of those V or XTHEADVECTOR;
that will increase the surface area of xtheadvector but it is probably
the right(?) way to go.

For the ifdefs, if you've got a Kconfig somewhere for THEAD_VECTOR,
can't that just depend on the V config? We'd end up with the
limitation that you can't add V 0.7 support without also dragging in
V1.0 support, but that's probably fine, right?

That's a great idea, thank you for the suggestion.
