An ELF file's .note.gnu.property indicates architecture features of the
file. These features are extracted earlier and stored in the struct
'arch_elf_state'. Introduce arch_setup_elf_property() to setup and enable
these features. The first use-case of this function is Shadow Stack and
Indirect Branch Tracking, which are introduced later.
