Subject: [PATCH 00/17] Add support for Clang CFI

This series adds support for Clang's Control-Flow Integrity (CFI)
checking. With CFI, the compiler injects a runtime check before each
indirect function call to ensure the target is a valid function with
the correct static type. This restricts possible call targets and
makes it more difficult for an attacker to exploit bugs that allow the
modification of stored function pointers. For more details, see:

  https://clang.llvm.org/docs/ControlFlowIntegrity.html

The first patch contains build system changes and error handling,
and implements support for cross-module indirect call checking. The
remaining patches address issues caused by the compiler
instrumentation. These include fixing known type mismatches, as well
as issues with address space confusion and cross-module function
address equality.

These patches add support only for arm64, but I'll post patches also
for x86_64 after we address the remaining issues there, including
objtool support.
