Frédéric Desbiens f23a1807a2 Added bash A profile update scripts and restored ports_arch as their source (#592)
The ARMv7-A and ARMv8-A ports are generated by update.ps1, which needs
PowerShell, so the cortex-a job in ports_arch_check ran on a Windows image and
nobody could reproduce it locally on Linux. Add update.sh beside each
update.ps1, with the same cores, compilers, copy sets and patches, and move the
job to the same Linux image as everything else.

The bash scripts were checked against the PowerShell ones by comparing what
each reports as drifted. They agree exactly on the 63 files the Windows job
last reported, and differ on 12 more, which turn out to be a defect in
update.ps1 rather than in the port. Its two .cproject patterns are written as
'value=`"cortex-a7`"' with backticks that survive into the pattern, so that
replacement has never matched, while the neighbouring Cortex-A7.NoFPU pattern
has no backticks and always worked. The result is that the AC6 example builds
for the A5, A8, A9, A12, A15 and A17 cores name cortex-a7 as their CPU while
their FPU string is correct. The bash scripts do what the PowerShell ones
intended, so regenerating corrects those twelve files.

Restore ports_arch as the source for the rest. The implementation of
_tx_thread_smp_time_get from #555 was applied to the twenty four generated SMP
ports and never to ports_arch, which still held MOV x0, #0 with a FIXME
comment, so regenerating would have replaced a working generic timer read with
a stub. That implementation now lives in the source. The remaining differences
are cosmetic and resolve in favour of the source: a trailing blank line in 38
copies of tx_thread_schedule.S and comment spacing in one tx_port.h.

Note that the Cortex-A VFP fix is already present in ports_arch and was never
at risk, contrary to what the description of the port consistency checks change
said before this was measured.

Extend scripts/check_ports.sh to run the A profile generators too, and make it
fail when a generator fails or is missing rather than reporting a clean tree,
which would have been a false pass.

Pin every workflow to ubuntu-24.04. ubuntu-latest already resolves to that
image, so nothing changes today, but a future migration becomes a deliberate
commit rather than something that happens underneath the -m32 builds.
