Cortex-A32 is an AArch32-only ARMv8-A core, but its tune was configured
as if it were a plain 64-bit-style tune: TUNE_FEATURES lacked both 'arm'
and 'thumb', so userspace and the kernel were built as fixed-width ARM
rather than Thumb-2, and the package architecture names did not match a
Thumb-2 build.

Add 'thumb' so the core is built as Thumb-2, and 'arm' so that
feature-arm-thumb.inc honours a recipe's explicit ARM_INSTRUCTION_SET =
"arm" instead of silently forcing it to thumb. Without 'arm', ARM_M_OPT
is pinned to "thumb" and recipes that request ARM warn, e.g.:

  Recipe 'libmad' selects ARM_INSTRUCTION_SET to be 'arm', but tune
  configuration overrides it to 'thumb'

On AArch32 the ARMv8 crypto extensions (AES/SHA) are part of the FPU,
not just the -march ISA. The 'crypto' feature only appends '+crypto' to
-march and leaves -mfpu at plain 'neon', so building the AES intrinsics
(e.g. mbedtls aesce.c) fails:

  error: inlining failed in call to 'always_inline' 'vaesdq_u8':
  target specific option mismatch

Select the crypto FPU by appending crypto-neon-fp-armv8 as the last word
of TUNE_CCARGS_MFPU when both 'crypto' and 'neon' are active, mirroring
the vfpv4+neon -> neon-vfpv4 idiom in feature-arm-neon.inc.

Update PACKAGE_EXTRA_ARCHS to match the resulting package arches:
cortexa32hf-neon becomes cortexa32t2hf-neon, and the crypto variant
becomes cortexa32t2hf-neon plus cortexa32t2hf-crypto-neon-fp-armv8.
