This is a preparatory commit for the upcoming addition of a new hardware
tag-based (MTE-based) KASAN mode.

Hardware tag-based KASAN will also be using tag-based approach, so rename
tags.c to tags_sw.c and report_tags.c to report_tags_sw.c to avoid
confusion once the new mode is added
I find it a bit excessive renaming the same file twice in the same
patch series (tags_report.c -> report_tags.c -> report_tags_sw.c)
