kselftest/arm64: mte: Fix MTE feature detection
To check whether the CPU and kernel support the MTE features we want to test, we use an (emulated) CPU ID register read. However we only check against a very particular feature version (0b0010), even though the ARM ARM promises ID register features to be backwards compatible. While this could be fixed by using ">=" instead of "==", we should actually use the explicit HWCAP2_MTE hardware capability, exposed by the kernel via the ELF auxiliary vectors. That moves this responsibility to the kernel, and fixes running the tests on machines with FEAT_MTE3 capability.
