Per Linus' comments requesting the replacement of "INDIR_BR_LP" in the
indirect branch tracking prctl()s with something more readable, and
suggesting the use of the speculation control prctl()s as an exemplar,
reimplement the prctl()s and related constants that control per-task
forward-edge control flow integrity.
This primarily involves two changes. First, the prctls are
restructured to resemble the style of the speculative execution
workaround control prctls PR_{GET,SET}_SPECULATION_CTRL, to make them
easier to extend in the future. Second, the "indir_br_lp" abbrevation
is expanded to "branch_landing_pads" to be less telegraphic. The
kselftest and documentation is adjusted accordingly.
