Subject: [PATCH v2] lkdtm: Add kfence read after free crash type

Add the ability to allocate memory from kfence and trigger a read after
free on that memory to validate that kfence is working properly. This is
used by ChromeOS integration tests to validate that kfence errors can be
collected on user devices and parsed properly.

Changes from v1 (https://lore.kernel.org/r/20231127234946.2514120-1-swboyd@chromium.org):
 * Removed ifdefs so code is always available but fails without kfence
