arm64: errata: Factor out broken AMU const counter cap
Move the workaround from the erratum 2457168-specific cpucap to a generic broken AMU constant-counter one. This keeps the existing Cortex-A510 handling unchanged while allowing other errata with similar AMU constant counter issue to share the capability bit and call sites.
