[PATCH v3 2/3] Detect SVE when reading aarch64 core files

- Subject: [PATCH v3 2/3] Detect SVE when reading aarch64 core files
- References: <20180810160849.68985-1-alan.hayward@arm.com>
Add a function which reads the vector length from the SVE section within an
aarch64 core file.
The SVE section in a core file contains a header followed by the registers.
Add defines to easily access the header fields within a buffer.
