Add a new VM feature 'KVM_ARM_CAP_MTE' which enables memory tagging
for a VM. This exposes the feature to the guest and automatically tags
memory pages touched by the VM as PG_mte_tagged (and clears the tags
storage) to ensure that the guest cannot see stale tags, and so that the
tags are correctly saved/restored across swap.

'system_supports_mte() && kvm->arch.mte_enabled' is redundant, but I
assume system_supports_mte() is there to improve the efficiency of the
branch, as it's using cpus_have_const_cap().

system_supports_mte() compiles to 0 when MTE support isn't built in, so this code can be removed by the compiler, whereas with kvm->arch.mte_enabled I doubt the compiler can deduce that it is never set.

Maybe a helper like

static inline bool kvm_arm_mte_enabled(struct kvm *kvm)
{
return system_supports_mte() && kvm->arch.mte_enabled;
}

would allow both the more efficient branch and look less confusing
where it gets used.

I wasn't sure it was worth having a helper since this was the only place checking this condition. It's also a bit tricky putting this in a logical header file, kvm_host.h doesn't work because struct kvm hasn't been defined by then.
