Arm64eTestBase.build() only overrode TRIPLE, but ARCH_CFLAGS is a Make command-line variable set separately by the test harness to a non-arm64e flag. A plain in-Makefile assignment can't override a command-line variable, so the compiler silently fell back to the host's default (non-arm64e) triple and __ptrauth attributes failed to compile. Now overrides ARCH_CFLAGS too.
