gdb: AArch64: Support MTE on baremetal
This commit moves aarch64_linux_memtag_matches_p, aarch64_linux_set_memtags, aarch64_linux_get_memtag, and aarch64_linux_memtag_to_string hooks (plus the aarch64_mte_get_atag function used by them), along with the setting of the memtag granule size, from aarch64-linux-tdep.c to aarch64-tdep.c, making MTE available on baremetal targets. Since the aarch64-linux-tdep.c layer inherits these hooks from aarch64-tdep.c, there is no effective change for aarch64-linux targets. Helpers used both by aarch64-tdep.c and by aarch64-linux-tdep.c were moved from arch/aarch64-mte-linux.{c,h} to new arch/aarch64-mte.{c,h} files.
