I originally followed the behavior of PCH PIC; however after asking
Jiaxun offlist, I was noticed about a register on the 7A1000 user
manual in the PIC that identifies the PIC version number; such version
number register does not exist for LPC part.

I will switch to ls7a-lpc or ls7a1000-lpc. Newer compatible strings in
the 2K series (LoongArch ones) come with the whole model number, I
don't know whether this is needed for 7A1000 (although it looks like
that 7A2000 has the same
