ld/aarch64elf: add support for DT_AARCH64_MEMTAG_MODE dynamic tag
Add new command line option -z memtag-mode=<mode> to aarch64 elf,
where <mode> can be one of none, sync, or async. For mode of sync or
async, a DT_AARCH64_MEMTAG_MODE dynamic tag with a value of 0 or 1
respectively is emitted.
readelf displays the dynamic tag when present:
$ readelf -d <exectutable>
Dynamic section at offset 0xfdd8 contains XX entries:
Tag Type Name/Value
0x0000000000000001 (NEEDED) Shared library: [libc.so.6]
0x000000000000000c (INIT) 0x400520
0x000000000000000d (FINI) 0x400b64
0x0000000000000019 (INIT_ARRAY) 0x41fdc8
... ... ...
0x0000000070000009 (AARCH64_MEMTAG_MODE) 0x1
... ... ...
Note that this patch doesn't add support for the "asymm" MTE mode,
which is an Armv8.7 extension.
