This change provides a simpler implementation of mte_get_mem_tag(),
mte_get_random_tag(), and mte_set_mem_tag_range().

Simplifications include removing system_supports_mte() checks as these
functions are onlye called from KASAN runtime that had already checked
system_supports_mte(). Besides that, size and address alignment checks
are removed from mte_set_mem_tag_range(), as KASAN now does those.

This change also moves these functions into the asm/mte-kasan.h header
and implements mte_set_mem_tag_range() via inline assembly to avoid
unnecessary functions calls.

Co-developed-by requires a Signed-off-by: as well.  Vincenzo, please

I added my Signed-off-by to the patch.
