rseq/selftests: Implement MIPS support
Implement support for both MIPS32 & MIPS64 in the rseq selftests, in
order to sanity check the recently enabled rseq syscall.

The tests all pass on a MIPS Boston development board running either a
MIPS32r2 interAptiv CPU & a MIPS64r6 I6500 CPU, both of which were
configured with 2 cores each of which have 2 hardware threads (VP(E)s) -
ie. 4 CPUs.

2e155fb7d6 rseq/selftests: Provide rseq library
This rseq helper library provides a user-space API to the rseq()
system call.

The rseq fast-path exposes the instruction pointer addresses where the
rseq assembly blocks begin and end, as well as the associated abort
instruction pointer, in the __rseq_table section. This section allows
debuggers may know where to place breakpoints when single-stepping
through assembly blocks which may be aborted at any point by the kernel.
