Description
When building with GCC15+, binutils 2.44+, glibc 2.41+ and `-mbranch-protection=standard` on (openSUSE Tumbleweed) aarch64, this enables PAC, BTI and GCS (Guarded Control Stack).
PAC and BTI are already supported with https://github.com/boostorg/context/pull/312
A patch similar to https://github.com/smuellerDD/leancrypto/commit/fe9751f2b13581e938f25b82f3e725372223af81 for `src/asm/*_arm64_aapcs_elf_gas.S` should be enough if assembler code does nothing around control flow (things like loaders, exception unwinders, etc)
