Kees Cook 475ddf1fce fortify: Split reporting and avoid passing string pointer ...

In preparation for KUnit testing and further improvements in fortify
failure reporting, split out the report and encode the function and access
failure (read or write overflow) into a single u8 argument. This mainly
ends up saving a tiny bit of space in the data segment. For a defconfig
with FORTIFY_SOURCE enabled:

$ size gcc/vmlinux.before gcc/vmlinux.after
   text  	  data     bss     dec    	    hex filename
26132309        9760658 2195460 38088427        2452eeb gcc/vmlinux.before
26132386        9748382 2195460 38076228        244ff44 gcc/vmlinux.after
