[testsuite] Add @ lines to check-function-bodies fluff

When using `check-function-bodies`, the subroutine `parse_function_bodies` uses
the `fluff` regexp to remove uninteresting assembly lines.

Arm targets generate assembly with some lines prefixed by `@`, these lines are
left by this process.

As an example of some lines prefixed by `@': the assembly output from the
`stacktest1` function in "bfloat16_simd_3_1.c" is:

        .align  2
        .global stacktest1
        .arch armv8.2-a
        .syntax unified
        .arm
        .fpu neon-fp-armv8
        .type   stacktest1, %function
stacktest1:
        @ args = 0, pretend = 0, frame = 8
        @ frame_needed = 0, uses_anonymous_args = 0
        @ link register save eliminated.
        sub     sp, sp, #8
        add     r3, sp, #6
        vst1.16 {d0[0]}, [r3]
        vld1.16 {d0[0]}, [r3]
        add     sp, sp, #8
        @ sp needed
        bx      lr
        .size   stacktest1, .-stacktest1



It seems that previous uses of `check-function-bodies` in the arm backend have
avoided problems with such lines since they use the `...` regexp in each place
such fluff occurs.

I'm currently writing a patch that I'd like to match the entire function body,
so I'd like to remove such `@` lines automatically.

	* lib/scanasm.exp (parse_function_bodies): Lines starting with '@' also
	counted as fluff.
