aarch64: Move and update the definition of MTE_ENABLED
The hwcap value is now in linux 5.10 and in glibc bits/hwcap.h, so use
that definition.

Move the definition to init-arch.h so all ifunc selectors can use it
and expose an "mte" shorthand for mte enabled runtime.

For now we allow user code to enable tag checks and use PROT_MTE
mappings without libc involvment, this is not guaranteed ABI, but
can be useful for testing and debugging with MTE.
