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.

It has been decided to remove the support IMMUTABLE futex.
perf bench was one of the eary users for testing purposes. Now that the
API is removed before it could be used in an official release, remove
the bits from perf, too.

directory used to build perf
It is used only to generate string tables, not to build perf, so move it
to the tools/perf/trace/beauty/{include,arch}/ hierarchies, that is used
just for scraping.
This is a something that should've have happened, as happened with the
linux/socket.h scrapper, do it now as Ian suggested while doing an
audit/refactor session in the headers used by perf.
No other tools/ living code uses it, just <linux/usbdevice_fs.h> coming
from either 'make install_headers' or from the system /usr/include/
directory.
