The NT_ARM_SVE register set supports two data formats, the native SVE one and an alternative format where we embed a copy of user_fpsimd_data as used for NT_PRFPREG in the SVE register set. The register data is set as for a write to NT_PRFPREG and changes in vector length and streaming mode are handled as for any NT_ARM_SVE write. This has not previously been tested by fp-ptrace, add coverage of it.
We do not support writes in FPSIMD format for NT_ARM_SSVE so we skip the test for anything that would leave us in streaming mode.

Applied to arm64 (for-next/kselftest), thanks!
