arm64/sve: Document that __SVE_VQ_MAX is much larger than needed
__SVE_VQ_MAX is defined without comment as 512 but the actual architectural maximum is 16, a substantial difference which might not be obvious to readers especially given the several different units used for specifying vector sizes in various contexts and the fact that it's often used via macros. In an effort to minimise surprises for users who might assume the value is the architectural maximum and use it to do things like size allocations add a comment noting the difference, and add a note for SVE_VQ_MAX to aid discoverability.
