The current tagCFunctionPtr() tool does a lot of extra work that is not needed if we are tagging a function and not a potentially arbitrary pointer. For example, 1. it doesn't need to do a null check. 2. it doesn't need to authenticate the function address. The RELEASE_ASSERT used to enforce that authentication can also go away.
