Andrey Konovalov 8479d7b5be kasan: documentation updates
Update KASAN documentation:

 - Bump Clang version requirement for HW_TAGS as ARM64_MTE depends on
   AS_HAS_LSE_ATOMICS as of commit 2decad92f4 ("arm64: mte: Ensure
   TIF_MTE_ASYNC_FAULT is set atomically"), which requires Clang 12.

 - Add description of the new kasan.vmalloc command line flag.

 - Mention that SW_TAGS and HW_TAGS modes now support vmalloc tagging.

 - Explicitly say that the "Shadow memory" section is only applicable to
   software KASAN modes.

 - Mention that shadow-based KASAN_VMALLOC is supported on arm64.
