x86/alternative: Implement .retpoline_sites support
Rewrite retpoline thunk call sites to be indirect calls for spectre_v2=off. This ensures spectre_v2=off is as near to a RETPOLINE=n build as possible. This is the replacement for objtool writing alternative entries to ensure the same and achieves feature-parity with the previous approach. One noteworthy feature is that it relies on the thunks to be in machine order to compute the register index. Specifically, this does not yet address the Jcc __x86_indirect_thunk_* calls generated by clang, a future patch will add this.
