arm64: sync kernel APIAKey when installing
A direct write to a APxxKey_EL1 register requires a context synchronization event to ensure that indirect reads made by subsequent instructions (e.g. AUTIASP, PACIASP) observe the new value. When we initialize the boot task's APIAKey in boot_init_stack_canary() via ptrauth_keys_switch_kernel() we miss the necessary ISB, and so there is a window where instructions are not guaranteed to use the new APIAKey value. This has been observed to result in boot-time crashes where PACIASP and AUTIASP within a function used a mixture of the old and new key values. Fix this by having ptrauth_keys_switch_kernel() synchronize the new key value with an ISB. At the same time, __ptrauth_key_install() is renamed to __ptrauth_key_install_nosync() so that it is obvious that this performs no synchronization itself.
