In fact, it is coupled. The idea here is that PAuth effectively defines another platform ABI (or several as on Darwin outside arm64e). The platform might chose different signing schemes, default options, and object marking scheme. Even more, the platform might chose not to expose `-fptrauth-*` options at all (as they do change ABI and their use by end users might be discouraged), so it does make sense to move the handling to target-specific code.
