    arm64: Add BTI landing pads to assembly functions
    
    When we enable BTI iboth the first instruction in a function that could
    be called indirectly, and a branch within a function need a valid
    landing pad instruction.
    
    There are three options for these instructions:
     1. A breakpoint instruction
     2. A pointer authentication PACIASP/PACIBSP
     3. A BTI instruction
    
    Option 1 will raise a breakpoint exception so isn't useable in either
    cases. Option 2 could be used in some function entry cases, but needs
    to be paired with an authentication instruction, and is normally only
    used in non-leaf functions we can't use it in this case. This leaves
    option 3.
    
    There are four variants of the instruction, the C variant is used on
    function entry and the J variant is for jumping within a function.
    There is also a JC that works with both and one with no target that
    works with neither.
