* ggml: aarch64: implement smmla kernel for q8_0_q8_0 quantized gemm
armv8.2-a and above supports MMLA instructions that have higher
throughput than DOT. this commit adds mmla kernel for
q8_0_q8_0 gemm. The feature is enabled if the platform supports
"__ARM_FEATURE_MATMUL_INT8"
On AWS Graviton3 processors this kernel resulted up to 1.5x
improvement for prompt evaluation throughput compared to the
default sdot kernel.
* ggml: aarch64: implement smmla kernel for q4_0_q8_0 quantized gemm

q4_0_q8_0 gemm. The feature is enabled if the platform supports

* ggml: aarch64: implement smmla kernel for q4_1_q8_1 quantized gemm
armv8.2-a and above supports MMLA instructions that have higher
throughput than DOT. this commit adds mmla kernel for
q4_1_q8_1 gemm. The feature is enabled if the platform supports
"__ARM_FEATURE_MATMUL_INT8"
On AWS Graviton3 processors this kernel resulted up to 1.5x
improvement for prompt evaluation throughput compared to the
default sdot kernel.
* ggml: update unit tests for the new vec_dot interface
* llama.cpp: add MATMUL_INT8 capability to system_info
updated the n_task calculation to use max number of
threads possible. This has improved the prompt eval
performance by around 5% for DOT kernels and by
around 10% for MMLA kernels on AWS Graviton3.
