Ramon de C Valle 71c7313f42 Add CFI integer types normalization ...

This commit adds a new option (i.e.,
`-fsanitize-cfi-icall-normalize-integers`) for normalizing integer types
as vendor extended types for cross-language LLVM CFI/KCFI support with
other languages that can't represent and encode C/C++ integer types.

Specifically, integer types are encoded as their defined representations
(e.g., 8-bit signed integer, 16-bit signed integer, 32-bit signed
integer, ...) for compatibility with languages that define
explicitly-sized integer types (e.g., i8, i16, i32, ..., in Rust).

``-fsanitize-cfi-icall-normalize-integers`` is compatible with
``-fsanitize-cfi-icall-generalize-pointers``.

This helps with providing cross-language CFI support with the Rust
compiler and is an alternative solution for the issue described and
alternatives proposed in the RFC
https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/pull/3296.

For more information about LLVM CFI/KCFI and cross-language LLVM
CFI/KCFI support for the Rust compiler, see the design document in the
tracking issue https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/89653.
