Fix PTRACE_GETREGSET failure for compat inferiors on arm64

When running a 32-bit ARM inferior with a 32-bit ARM GDB on a 64-bit
AArch64 host, only VFP registers (NT_ARM_VFP) are available. The FPA
registers (NT_PRFPREG) are not available so GDB must not request them, as
this will fail with -EINVAL.  This is most noticeably exposed when running
"generate-core-file":

(gdb) generate-core-file myprog.core
Unable to fetch the floating point registers.: Invalid argument.

ptrace(PTRACE_GETREGSET, 27642, NT_FPREGSET, 0xffcc67f0) = -1 EINVAL (Invalid argument)

gdb/ChangeLog:

2017-01-27  Kees Cook  <keescook@google.com>

* gdb/arm-linux-nat.c (arm_linux_fetch_inferior_registers): Call
fetch_fpregs if target has fpa registers.
(arm_linux_store_inferior_registers): Call store_fpregs if target
has fpa registers.
