Sometimes instead of storing addresses as is, the kernel stores the address of
a page and an offset within that page, and then computes the actual address
when it needs to make an access. Because of this the pointer tag gets lost
(gets set to 0xff). The solution is to ignore all accesses tagged with 0xff.
This patch adds a -hwasan-match-all-tag flag to hwasan, which allows to ignore
accesses through pointers with a particular pointer tag value for validity.

This patch changes hwasan inline instrumentation:
Fixes address untagging for shadow address calculation (use 0xFF instead of 0x00 for the top byte).
Emits brk instruction instead of hlt for the kernel and user space.
Use 0x900 instead of 0x100 for brk immediate (0x100 - 0x800 are unavailable in the kernel).
Fixes and adds appropriate tests.

Summary:
-hwasan-mapping-offset defines the non-zero shadow base address.
-hwasan-kernel disables calls to __hwasan_init in module constructors.
Unlike ASan, -hwasan-kernel does not force callback instrumentation.
This is controlled separately with -hwasan-instrument-with-calls.
