This commit introduces a new linking test target, arm_v8_1m_mve_link, for the ARM architecture. It aims to confirm that code compiled with options enabling the MVE (M-Profile Vector Extension) can link correctly. This is important because board-specific linker flags might sometimes be incompatible with the linkage requirements of certain test cases, ensuring overall build stability.
