kmsan: support SLAB_POISON
Avoid false KMSAN negatives with SLUB_DEBUG by allowing kmsan_slab_free() to poison the freed memory, and by preventing init_object() from unpoisoning new allocations by using __memset(). There are two alternatives to this approach. First, init_object() can be marked with __no_sanitize_memory. This annotation should be used with great care, because it drops all instrumentation from the function, and any shadow writes will be lost. Even though this is not a concern with the current init_object() implementation, this may change in the future. Second, kmsan_poison_memory() calls may be added after memset() calls. The downside is that init_object() is called from free_debug_processing(), in which case poisoning will erase the distinction between simply uninitialized memory and UAF.
