ubsan: introduce CONFIG_UBSAN_LOCAL_BOUNDS for Clang
When the kernel is compiled with Clang, -fsanitize=bounds expands to -fsanitize=array-bounds and -fsanitize=local-bounds. Enabling -fsanitize=local-bounds with Clang has the unfortunate side-effect of inserting traps; this goes back to its original intent, which was as a hardening and not a debugging feature [1]. The same feature made its way into -fsanitize=bounds, but the traps remained. For that reason, -fsanitize=bounds was split into 'array-bounds' and 'local-bounds' [2]. Since 'local-bounds' doesn't behave like a normal sanitizer, enable it with Clang only if trapping behaviour was requested by CONFIG_UBSAN_TRAP=y. Add the UBSAN_BOUNDS_LOCAL config to Kconfig.ubsan to enable the 'local-bounds' option by default when UBSAN_TRAP is enabled.
