system-arm: Detect the GICv3 redistributor stride at runtime

Some platforms are not GICv4 compatible, therefore we need to make sure
the stride between redistributors is configurable:

2 frames of 64KiB for GICv3 => a stride of 128KiB
4 frames of 64KiB for GICv4 => a stride of 256KiB

We detect this at runtime by reading the GICD_PIDR2.ArchRev bitfield
This is 3 for GICv3 and 4 for GICv4.

Note: other software projects [1] rely on a different check, mainly
reading the GICR_TYPER.VLPIS bit
We diverge from this behaviour as VLPIS are not implemented and we do
not want to incorrectly report this to the probing software.

We should move to VLPIS once they get implemented
