RFR: 8371869: RISC-V: too many warnings when build on BPI-F3 SBC

Hi, please consider this riscv-specific change.

I witnessed 400+ warning messages when doing a native build on BPI-F3 SBC running kernel 6.6.63.
`OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM warning: Cannot enable UseZvfh, it's missing dependent extension(s) v (disabled), Zfh (enabled)`

The warning messages indicate that we won't auto-enable extensions like `Zvfh` due to lack of vector support on old kernels.
I think these warning messages could be confusing to people. It might be more reasonable to just log these messages.
This also unifies the way of logging prefering `log_info`. It doesn't seem necessary to me to use `log_debug` in this case.

After this change, the log looks like:

$ java -Xlog:all -version
