Remove dependency on base::CPU when dealing with MTE or BTI

Various security features depend on detecting support by the cpu.
For speed, those checks use base::CPU::GetInstanceNoAllocation(),
making the feature attackable by modifying the data stored in this
instance.

To mitigate against this kind of attacks, this CL uses the fact
that cpu support is constant through a processes' runtime and
implements a solution using the runtime linker to resolve the
correct functions by using ifuncs. The runtime linker will ensure the
ifuncs are protected from modifications after program start, i.e. when
linking with "-z relo".

Logo Chromium

Chromium is an open-source browser project that aims to build a safer, faster, and more stable way for all users to experience the web.

The project's web site is https://www.chromium.org.

To check out the source code locally, don't use git clone! Instead, follow the instructions on how to get the code.

Documentation in the source is rooted in docs/README.md.

Learn how to Get Around the Chromium Source Code Directory Structure.

For historical reasons, there are some small top level directories. Now the guidance is that new top level directories are for product (e.g. Chrome, Android WebView, Ash). Even if these products have multiple executables, the code should be in subdirectories of the product.
