keep it aligned with the changes concerning STATE=FEAT_STATE_CHECKED(2),
part of Feature Detection procedure.

This is to avoid corruption of the Non-secure world data in the Z-registers
which are aliased by the SIMD and FP registers. The build option is not
compatible with the ``CTX_INCLUDE_FPREGS`` build option, and will raise an
assert on platforms where SVE is implemented and ``ENABLE_SVE_FOR_NS`` set to
1. This flag can take the values 0 to 2, to align with the ``FEATURE_DETECTION``
mechanism. The default is 1 but is automatically disabled when
ENABLE_SME_FOR_NS=1 since SME encompasses SVE. At this time, this build
option cannot be used on systems that have SPM_MM enabled.
