x86/alternatives: Add macro comments

Browse Source 
... so that when one stares at the .s output, one can find her way
around the resulting asm magic.

With it, ALTERNATIVE looks like this now:

          # ALT: oldnstr
  661:
          ...
  662:
          # ALT: padding
  .skip ...
  663:
  .pushsection .altinstructions,"a"

  ...

  .popsection
  .pushsection .altinstr_replacement, "ax"
          # ALT: replacement 1
  6641:
  	...
  6651:
          .popsection

Merge __OLDINSTR() into OLDINSTR(), while at it.

No functional changes.
