Linux 5.18 defines a new AArch64 HWCAP value HWCAP2_MTE3; add it to
glibc's sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/aarch64/bits/hwcap.h.
Tested with build-many-glibcs.py for aarch64-linux-gnu.
Indicates the availability of enhanced counter virtualization extension
of armv8.6-a with self-synchronized virtual counter CNTVCTSS_EL0 usable
in userspace.
I used these shell commands:
../glibc/scripts/update-copyrights $PWD/../gnulib/build-aux/update-copyright
(cd ../glibc && git commit -am"[this commit message]")
and then ignored the output, which consisted lines saying "FOO: warning:
copyright statement not found" for each of 7061 files FOO.
I then removed trailing white space from math/tgmath.h,
support/tst-support-open-dev-null-range.c, and
sysdeps/x86_64/multiarch/strlen-vec.S, to work around the following
obscure pre-commit check failure diagnostics from Savannah. I don't
know why I run into these diagnostics whereas others evidently do not.

Add various defines and stubs for enabling MTE on AArch64 sysv-like
systems such as Linux. The HWCAP feature bit is copied over in the
same way as other feature bits. Similarly we add a new wrapper header
for mman.h to define the PROT_MTE flag that can be used with mmap and
related functions.
We add a new field to struct cpu_features that can be used, for
example, to check whether or not certain ifunc'd routines should be
bound to MTE-safe versions.
Finally, if we detect that MTE should be enabled (ie via the glibc
tunable); we enable MTE during startup as required.
Support in the Linux kernel was added in version 5.10.

Binaries can opt-in to using BTI via an ELF object file marking.
The dynamic linker has to then mprotect the executable segments
with PROT_BTI. In case of static linked executables or in case
of the dynamic linker itself, PROT_BTI protection is done by the
operating system.
On AArch64 glibc uses PT_GNU_PROPERTY instead of PT_NOTE to check
the properties of a binary because PT_NOTE can be unreliable with
old linkers (old linkers just append the notes of input objects
together and add them to the output without checking them for
consistency which means multiple incompatible GNU property notes
can be present in PT_NOTE).
BTI property is handled in the loader even if glibc is not built
with BTI support, so in theory user code can be BTI protected
independently of glibc. In practice though user binaries are not
marked with the BTI property if glibc has no support because the
static linked libc objects (crt files, libc_nonshared.a) are
unmarked.
This patch relies on Linux userspace API that is not yet in a
linux release but in v5.8-rc1 so scheduled to be in Linux 5.8.
