[ARM] Allow selecting hard-float ABI in integer-only MVE.
Armv8.1-M can be configured to support the integer subset of the MVE vector instructions, and no floating point. In that situation, the FP and vector registers still exist, and so do the load, store and move instructions that transfer data in and out of them. So there's no reason the hard floating point ABI can't be supported, and you might reasonably want to use it, for the sake of intrinsics-based code passing explicit MVE vector types between functions. But the selection of the hard float ABI in the backend was gated on Subtarget->hasVFP2Base(), which is false in the case of integer MVE and no FP. As a result, you'd silently get the soft float ABI even if you deliberately tried to select it, e.g. with clang options such as --target=arm-none-eabi -mfloat-abi=hard -march=armv8.1m.main+nofp+mve The hard float ABI should have been gated on the weaker condition Subtarget->hasFPRegs(), because the only requirement for being able to pass arguments in the FP registers is that the registers themselves should exist. I haven't added a new test, because changing the existing CodeGen/Thumb2/float-ops.ll test seemed sufficient. But I've added a comment explaining why the results are expected to be what they are.
