rG58de79153622: arm64: mte: configure initial state for system registers

Summary

The fields in SCTLR_EL1 and HCR_EL2 for enabling MTE are set, and if the
ID_AA64PFR1_EL1 register shows MTE is present, the GCR_EL1 register is
also configured, and the two TFSR registers which hold pending tag check
faults are cleared.
