x86/its: Add support for ITS-safe return thunk

commit a75bf27fe41abe658c53276a0c486c4bf9adecfc upstream.

RETs in the lower half of cacheline may be affected by ITS bug,
specifically when the RSB-underflows. Use ITS-safe return thunk for such
RETs.

RETs that are not patched:

- RET in retpoline sequence does not need to be patched, because the
  sequence itself fills an RSB before RET.
- RET in Call Depth Tracking (CDT) thunks __x86_indirect_{call|jump}_thunk
  and call_depth_return_thunk are not patched because CDT by design
  prevents RSB-underflow.
- RETs in .init section are not reachable after init.
- RETs that are explicitly marked safe with ANNOTATE_UNRET_SAFE.
