bpf: Add bitwise atomic instructions
This adds instructions for
atomic[64]_[fetch_]and
atomic[64]_[fetch_]or
atomic[64]_[fetch_]xor
All these operations are isomorphic enough to implement with the same
verifier, interpreter, and x86 JIT code, hence being a single commit.
The main interesting thing here is that x86 doesn't directly support
the fetch_ version these operations, so we need to generate a CMPXCHG
loop in the JIT. This requires the use of two temporary registers,
IIUC it's safe to use BPF_REG_AX and x86's AUX_REG for this purpose.
