Hi all,
Build jdk on linux-aarch64 with older assembler version(as 2.30) will report compilation failre, shows as [JDK-8366777](https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8366777).
This PR add the expression `svfloat64_t a() {}` to makefile which will trigger the compilation during configure stage. After this PR, at configure stage will check the gcc and assember support `-march=armv8-a+sve` or not more comprehensive.
Testing:
- [x] On linux-aarch64 gcc12.3.1 as2.37, configure set SVE_CFLAGS as '-march=armv8-a+sve'
- [x] On linux-aarch64 gcc10.3.0 as2.30, configure set SVE_CFLAGS as empty
The compilation fails demo as below:
# cat sve.c
#include <arm_sve.h>
svfloat64_t a() {}
# gcc -march=armv8-a+sve sve.c
