x86/fpu: Change fpu->fpregs_active from 'int' to 'char', add lazy switching comments

Improve the memory layout of 'struct fpu':

 - change ->fpregs_active from 'int' to 'char' - it's just a single flag
   and modern x86 CPUs can do efficient byte accesses.

 - pack related fields closer to each other: often 'fpu->state' will not be
   touched, while the other fields will - so pack them into a group.

Also add comments to each field, describing their purpose, and add
some background information about lazy restores.

Also fix an obsolete, lazy switching related comment in fpu_copy()'s description.
