prctl: add arch-agnostic prctl()s for indirect branch tracking

Three architectures (x86, aarch64, riscv) have support for indirect
branch tracking feature in a very similar fashion. On a very high
level, indirect branch tracking is a CPU feature where CPU tracks
branches which use a memory operand to transfer control. As part of
this tracking, during an indirect branch, the CPU expects a landing
pad instruction on the target PC, and if not found, the CPU raises
some fault (architecture-dependent).

x86 landing pad instr - 'ENDBRANCH'
arch64 landing pad instr - 'BTI'
riscv landing instr - 'lpad'

Given that three major architectures have support for indirect branch
tracking, this patch creates architecture-agnostic 'prctls' to allow
userspace to control this feature.  They are:
 - PR_GET_INDIR_BR_LP_STATUS: Get the current configured status for indirect
   branch tracking.
 - PR_SET_INDIR_BR_LP_STATUS: Set the configuration for indirect branch
   tracking.
   The following status options are allowed:
       - PR_INDIR_BR_LP_ENABLE: Enables indirect branch tracking on user
         thread.
       - PR_INDIR_BR_LP_DISABLE: Disables indirect branch tracking on user
         thread.
 - PR_LOCK_INDIR_BR_LP_STATUS: Locks configured status for indirect branch
   tracking for user thread.
