kasan: add memory corruption identification support for hardware tag-based mode
Add memory corruption identification support for hardware tag-based mode. We store one old free pointer tag and free backtrace instead of five because hardware tag-based kasan only has 16 different tags. If we store as many stacks as SW tag-based kasan does(5 stacks), there is high probability to find the same tag in the stacks when out-of-bound issues happened and we will mistake out-of-bound issue for use-after-free.
