This patch encapsulates decision logic about when and how to generate
PAC/BTI related code. It's a part shared by PAC-RET, BTI placement,
build attribute emission, etc, so it make sense committing it
separately in order to unblock the aforementioned parts, which can
proceed concurrently.

This patch adds a few member functions to `ARMFunctionInfo`, which are currently
unused, therefore there is no testing for them at the moment. This code is
tested in follow-up PAC/BTI code gen patches.

This patch is part of a series that adds support for the PACBTI-M extension of
the Armv8.1-M architecture, as detailed here:

https://community.arm.com/arm-community-blogs/b/architectures-and-processors-blog/posts/armv8-1-m-pointer-authentication-and-branch-target-identification-extension

The PACBTI-M specification can be found in the Armv8-M Architecture Reference
