selftest/x86/bugs: Add selftests for ITS

Below are the tests added for Indirect Target Selection (ITS):

- its_sysfs.py - Check if sysfs reflects the correct mitigation status for
the mitigation selected via the kernel cmdline.

- its_permutations.py - tests mitigation selection with cmdline
permutations with other bugs like spectre_v2 and retbleed.

- its_indirect_alignment.py - verifies that for addresses in
.retpoline_sites section that belong to lower half of cacheline are
patched to ITS-safe thunk. Typical output looks like below:

Site 49: function symbol: __x64_sys_restart_syscall+0x1f <0xffffffffbb1509af>
# vmlinux: 0xffffffff813509af: jmp 0xffffffff81f5a8e0
# kcore: 0xffffffffbb1509af: jmpq *%rax
# ITS thunk NOT expected for site 49
# PASSED: Found *%rax
#
Site 50: function symbol: __resched_curr+0xb0 <0xffffffffbb181910>
# vmlinux: 0xffffffff81381910: jmp 0xffffffff81f5a8e0
# kcore: 0xffffffffbb181910: jmp 0xffffffffc02000fc
# ITS thunk expected for site 50
# PASSED: Found 0xffffffffc02000fc -> jmpq *%rax <scattered-thunk?>

- its_ret_alignment.py - verifies that for addresses in .return_sites
section that belong to lower half of cacheline are patched to
its_return_thunk. Typical output looks like below:

Site 97: function symbol: collect_event+0x48 <0xffffffffbb007f18>
# vmlinux: 0xffffffff81207f18: jmp 0xffffffff81f5b500
# kcore: 0xffffffffbb007f18: jmp 0xffffffffbbd5b560
# PASSED: Found jmp 0xffffffffbbd5b560 <its_return_thunk>
#
Site 98: function symbol: collect_event+0xa4 <0xffffffffbb007f74>
# vmlinux: 0xffffffff81207f74: jmp 0xffffffff81f5b500
# kcore: 0xffffffffbb007f74: retq
# PASSED: Found retq

Some of these tests have dependency on tools like virtme-ng[1] and drgn[2].
When the dependencies are not met, the test will be skipped.
