The new IBM z16 is added to platform string array.
The macro _DL_PLATFORMS_COUNT is incremented.
_dl_hwcaps_subdir is extended by "z16" if HWCAP_S390_VXRS_PDE2
is set. HWCAP_S390_NNPA is not tested in _dl_hwcaps_subdirs_active
as those instructions may be replaced or removed in future.
tst-glibc-hwcaps.c is extended in order to test z16 via new marker5.
A fatal glibc error is dumped if glibc was build with architecture
level set for z16, but run on an older machine. (See dl-hwcap-check.h)
(cherry picked from commit 2376944b9e)
Subdirectories z13, z14, z15 can be selected, mostly based on the
level of support for vector instructions.

This recognizes the DL_CACHE_HWCAP_EXTENSION flag in cache entries,
and picks the supported cache entry with the highest priority.
The elf/tst-glibc-hwcaps-prepend-cache test documents a non-desired
aspect of the current cache implementation: If the cache selects a DSO
that does not exist on disk, _dl_map_object falls back to open_path,
which may or may not find an alternative implementation. This is an
existing limitation that also applies to the legacy hwcaps processing
for ld.so.cache.
