[AArch64] PAC/BTI code generation for LLVM generated functions

PAC/BTI-related codegen in the AArch64 backend is controlled by a set
of LLVM IR function attributes, added to the function by Clang, based
on command-line options and GCC-style function attributes. However,
functions, generated in the LLVM middle end (for example,
asan.module.ctor or __llvm_gcov_write_out) do not get any attributes
and the backend incorrectly does not do any PAC/BTI code generation.

This patch record the default state of PAC/BTI codegen in a set of
LLVM IR module-level attributes, based on command-line options:

* "sign-return-address", with non-zero value means generate code to
  sign return addresses (PAC-RET), zero value means disable PAC-RET.

* "sign-return-address-all", with non-zero value means enable PAC-RET
  for all functions, zero value means enable PAC-RET only for
  functions, which spill LR.

* "sign-return-address-with-bkey", with non-zero value means use B-key
  for signing, zero value mean use A-key.

This set of attributes are always added for AArch64 targets (as
opposed, for example, to interpreting a missing attribute as having a
value 0) in order to be able to check for conflicts when combining
module attributed during LTO.

Module-level attributes are overridden by function level attributes.
All the decision making about whether to not to generate PAC and/or
BTI code is factored out into AArch64FunctionInfo, there shouldn't be
any places left, other than AArch64FunctionInfo, which directly
examine PAC/BTI attributes, except AArch64AsmPrinter.cpp, which
is/will-be handled by a separate patch.
