Since #94279 the CPU features are added either by `AArch64TargetInfo::parseTargetAttr` when dealing with `__attribute(target(...))`, and by `getAArch64ArchFeaturesFromMcpu` if you are in the clang driver dealing with `-mcpu`. Basically anywhere you see `AArch64::ExtensionSet::addCPUDefaults` used. This approach properly handles feature dependencies, which the old `AArch64TargetInfo::initFeatureMap` approach did not.

We are using `llvm::sys::getDefaultTargetTriple()` and `llvm::sys::getHostCPUName()` to get TargetInfo, and was getting 👇 features before the aarch64 PR landed. (We still get features correctly for other backends).
