This series enhances tooling to support new operations:

- Support for MTE tag since Arm SPE v1.3;
- Support for Advanced SIMD extension and SVE operations;
- Support memcpy, memset and GCS operations;
- Support extended operations for atomic, Acquire/Release and
Exclusive instructions.
- Enhance the data source for associated info, like floating-point,
conditional, data processing, etc.

This series is divided into three parts:

Patches 01 ~ 06: Support raw dump for new operations;
Patches 07 ~ 17: Export the operation info into records, so that the
information can be later consumed by samples.
Patches 18 ~ 25: Set the operation info into sample's data source and
SIMD flag, and updated the document.

This patch series is tested on FVP for native parsing and x86_64 for
cross parsing.

Can I get some comments from ARM folks? I think I can merge part 1 and
2 before changing the kernel interface.

Thanks,
Namhyung
