UEFI v2.10 extends the EFI memory attributes table with a flag that
indicates whether or not all RuntimeServicesCode regions were
constructed with ENDBR landing pads, permitting the OS to map these
regions with IBT restrictions enabled.
So let's take this into account on x86 as well.

Add a macro which prevents a function from getting sealed if there are
no compile-time references to it.

Objtool's --ibt option generates .ibt_endbr_seal which lists
superfluous ENDBR instructions. That is those instructions for which
the function is never indirectly called.
Overwrite these ENDBR instructions with a NOP4 such that these
function can never be indirect called, reducing the number of viable
ENDBR targets in the kernel.

Add Kconfig, Makefile and basic instruction support for x86 IBT.
(Ab)use __DISABLE_EXPORTS to disable IBT since it's already employed
to mark compressed and purgatory. Additionally mark realmode with it
as well to avoid inserting ENDBR instructions there. While ENDBR is
technically a NOP, inserting them was causing some grief due to code
growth. There's also a problem with using __noendbr in code compiled
without -fcf-protection=branch.
