When the compiler emits: "CALL __x86_indirect_thunk_\reg" for an
indirect call, have objtool rewrite it to:
ALTERNATIVE "call __x86_indirect_thunk_\reg",
"call *%reg", ALT_NOT(X86_FEATURE_RETPOLINE)
Additionally, in order to not emit endless identical
.altinst_replacement chunks, use a global symbol for them, see
__x86_indirect_alt_*.
This also avoids objtool from having to do code generation.
