Userspace page aliasing allows us to use middle pointer bits for tags
without untagging them before syscalls or accesses. This should enable
easier experimentation with HWASan on x86_64 platforms.
Currently stack, global, and secondary heap tagging are unsupported.
Only primary heap allocations get tagged.
Note that aliasing mode will not work properly in the presence of
fork(), since heap memory will be shared between the parent and child
processes. This mode is non-ideal; we expect Intel LAM to enable full
HWASan support on x86_64 in the future.

Summary:
This has been an experiment with late malloc interposition, made
possible by a non-standard feature of the Android dynamic loader.

Once we start instrumenting globals, all addresses including those of string literals
that we pass to the operating system will start being tagged. Since we can't rely
on the operating system to be able to cope with these addresses, we need to untag
them before passing them to the operating system. This change introduces a macro
that does so and uses it everywhere it is needed.

These lit configuration files are really Python source code. Using the
.py file extension helps editors and tools use the correct language
mode. LLVM and Clang already use this convention for lit configuration,
this change simply applies it to all of compiler-rt.

The Android dynamic loader has a non-standard feature that allows
libraries such as the hwasan runtime to interpose symbols even after
the symbol already has a value. The new value of the symbol is used to
relocate libraries loaded after the interposing library, but existing
libraries keep the old value. This behaviour is activated by the
DF_1_GLOBAL flag in DT_FLAGS_1, which is set by passing -z global to
the linker, which is what we already do to link the hwasan runtime.
What this means in practice is that if we have .so files that depend
on interceptor-mode hwasan without the main executable depending on
it, some of the libraries in the process will be using the hwasan
allocator and some will be using the system allocator, and these
allocators need to interact somehow. For example, if an instrumented
library calls a function such as strdup that allocates memory on
behalf of the caller, the instrumented library can reasonably expect
to be able to call free to deallocate the memory.
We can handle that relatively easily with hwasan by using tag 0 to
represent allocations from the system allocator. If hwasan's realloc
or free functions are passed a pointer with tag 0, the system allocator
is called.
One limitation is that this scheme doesn't work in reverse: if an
instrumented library allocates memory, it must free the memory itself
and cannot pass ownership to a system library. In a future change,
we may want to expose an API for calling the system allocator so
that instrumented libraries can safely transfer ownership of memory
to system libraries.

Summary:
Currently many allocator specific errors (OOM, for example) are reported as
a text message and CHECK(0) termination, not stack, no details, not too
helpful nor informative. To improve the situation, detailed and
structured errors were defined and reported under the appropriate conditions.
