Add ARCH_HAS_KCOV to ARM64 config. To avoid crashes, disable
instrumentation of the following files:
arch/arm64/boot/*
arch/arm64/kvm/hyp/*
Signed-off-by: Alexander Potapenko <glider at google.com>

v2: - disable instrumentation of arch/arm64/{boot,kvm/hyp}
- enable instrumentation of arch/arm64/lib/delay.c
