The vector granule (AArch64 DWARF register 46) is a pseudo-register that
contains the available size in bits of SVE vector registers in the
current call frame, divided by 64. The vector granule can be used in
DWARF expressions to describe SVE/SME stack frame layouts (e.g., the
location of SVE callee-saves).
The first time VG is evaluated (if not already set), it is initialized
to the result of evaluating a "CNTD" instruction (this assumes SVE is
available).
To support SME, the value of VG can change per call frame; this is
currently handled like any other callee-save and is intended to support
the unwind information implemented in #152283. This limits how VG is
used in the CFI information of functions with "streaming-mode changes"
(mode changes that change the SVE vector length), to make the unwinder's
job easier.
