[PULL v3 01/35] target/riscv: Add a property to set vl to ceil(AVL/2)

[Alistair Francis]

From: Jason Chien <jason.ch...@sifive.com>

RVV spec allows implementations to set vl with values within
[ceil(AVL/2),VLMAX] when VLMAX < AVL < 2*VLMAX. This commit adds a
property "rvv_vl_half_avl" to enable setting vl = ceil(AVL/2). This
behavior helps identify compiler issues and bugs.
