Introduce support for bringing up Virtual Processors in MIPSr6 systems
as CPUs, much like their VPE parallel from the now-deprecated MT ASE.
The existing mips_cps_boot_vpes function fits the MIPSr6 architecture
pretty well - it can now simply write the mask of running VPs to the
VC_RUN register, rather than looping through each & starting or stopping
as appropriate as is done for VPEs from the MT ASE. Thus the VP support
is in general an extension & simplification of the existing MT ASE VPE
(aka SMVP) support.
