Subject: [RFC PATCH v9 23/27] ELF: Introduce arch_setup_elf_property()

An ELF file's .note.gnu.property indicates architecture features of the
file.  These features are extracted earlier and stored in the struct
'arch_elf_state'.  Introduce arch_setup_elf_property() to setup and enable
these features.  The first use-case of this function is Shadow Stack and
Indirect Branch Tracking, which are introduced later.
