GCC’s RISC-V backend now includes support for the Ascalon XG CPU. This commit adds the necessary definitions to riscv-cores.def, riscv-opts.h, and riscv.md to recognize the tt-ascalon-xg microarchitecture. The Ascalon XG differs from the Ascalon X by lacking the zvkng extension and featuring reduced vector floating-point double-precision throughput. New defines for CPU units and reservations in tt-ascalon-d8.md capture these microarchitectural details for instruction scheduling and optimization.
