objtool: Detect jumps to retpoline thunks
A direct jump to a retpoline thunk is really an indirect jump in
disguise. Change the objtool instruction type accordingly.
Objtool needs to know where indirect branches are so it can detect
switch statement jump tables.
This fixes a bunch of warnings with CONFIG_RETPOLINE like:
arch/x86/events/intel/uncore_nhmex.o: warning: objtool: nhmex_rbox_msr_enable_event()+0x44: sibling call from callable instruction with modified stack frame
kernel/signal.o: warning: objtool: copy_siginfo_to_user()+0x91: sibling call from callable instruction with modified stack frame
