abi: new module
Support probing LoongArch ABI features at first.
On a box running Linux 6.10.6 (with the 6.11 syscall interface update backported), with the libLoL old-world compatibility solution activated:
$ ./build/fastfetch -s abi -l none
ABI (fastfetch program): New world (ABI2.0)
ABI (LoongArch new world): Supported (Linux 6.11)
ABI (LoongArch old world): Supported (compatible)
JSON output format:
// ./fastfetch -s abi -l none --format json

Hello there. Although I'm from PRC, I personally don't and maybe will never use loongson. So do major users of fastfetch. If this module is only used for Linux / loongson, I don't think it's worth merging.

https://github.com/fastfetch-cli/fastfetch/pull/1214 Linglong may have even fewer users than loongson, haven't they merged yet?
It didn't introduce a new module, and the code was fairly simple and not platform specific.

Other architectures' users may benefit from it too, just that they probably won't have the "new/old world split" issue, but rather real calling conventions (think x86 x32, or RISC-V RV64ILP32). I only contributed the one support for LoongArch mainly because I only had this much free time today. Besides, I could not implement more arch support, because my work machine is LoongArch, and I don't have easy access to exotic ABI boxes of other "more popular" arches. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Got it. Thanks for the answer.
