arm64: document the boot requirements for MTE
When booting the kernel we access system registers such as GCR_EL1
if MTE is supported. These accesses are defined to trap to EL3 if
SCR_EL3.ATA is disabled. Furthermore, tag accesses will not behave
as expected if SCR_EL3.ATA is not set, or if HCR_EL2.ATA is not set
and we were booted at EL1. Therefore, require that these bits are
enabled when appropriate.
