Failing test(s) for `Highway` on `neoverse_v1`

[bedroge]

In #419 we encountered a failing test for Highway 1.0.3 on neoverse_v1:

        211 - HwyBlockwiseShiftTestGroup/HwyBlockwiseShiftTest.TestAllShiftRightLanes/SVE_256  # GetParam() = 33554432 (Subprocess aborted)

While debugging things interactively, sometimes this one failed in the same way:

        212 - HwyBlockwiseShiftTestGroup/HwyBlockwiseShiftTest.TestAllShiftRightLanes/SVE  # GetParam() = 134217728 (Subprocess aborted)

An issue has been created upstream, and according to the developer this can be safely ignored, since the expected value itself is wrong:
google/highway#1938

A hook will be added to exclude these tests on neoverse_v1.

workaround implemented in hooks in #419

Highway version 1.0.4 (with GCCcore 12.3.0) also has test-related issues on neoverse_v1: they even fail to build. As a workaround --optarch=GENERIC could be used to complete the build, but 3 out of 843 tests will still fail to run. We could also set the CMake configure flag -DHWY_ENABLE_TESTS=OFF to disable building (and running) the tests, with the advantage that we still get an optimized (but untested) build.

An almost similar issue also shows up for neoverse_n1, and disabling the tests doesn't solve the issue there. For that one, setting --optarch=GENERIC does make the build succeed, and even the tests all succeed as well.

I think this primarily exists now as reference only, so closing...
