parentrseq/selftests: Add __rseq_exit_point_array section for debuggers (diff)

rseq/selftests: Introduce __rseq_cs_ptr_array, rename __rseq_table to __rseq_cs
The entries within __rseq_table are aligned on 32 bytes due to linux/rseq.h struct rseq_cs uapi requirements, but the start of the __rseq_table section is not guaranteed to be 32-byte aligned. It can cause padding to be added at the start of the section, which makes it hard to use as an array of items by debuggers. Considering that __rseq_table does not really consist of a table due to the presence of padding, rename this section to __rseq_cs. Create a new __rseq_cs_ptr_array section which contains 64-bit packed pointers to entries within the __rseq_cs section.
