rseq/selftests: x86: use ud1 instruction as RSEQ_SIG opcode
Use ud1 as the guard instruction for the restartable sequence abort handler. Its benefit compared to nopl is to trap execution if the program ends up trying to execute it by mistake, which makes debugging easier. The 4-byte signature per se is unchanged (it is the instruction operand). Only the opcode is changed from nopl to ud1.
