AArch64: Add target description/feature for MTE registers

This patch adds a target description and feature "mte" for aarch64.

It includes one new register, tag_ctl, that can be used to configure the
tag generation rules and sync/async modes.  It is 64-bit in size.

The patch also adjusts the code that creates the target descriptions at
runtime based on CPU feature checks.
