arm64: Improve diagnostics when trapping BRK with FAULT_BRK_IMM

When generating instructions at runtime, for example due to kernel text
patching or the BPF JIT, we can emit a trapping BRK instruction if we
are asked to encode an invalid instruction such as an out-of-range]
branch. This is indicative of a bug in the caller, and will result in a
crash on executing the generated code. Unfortunately, the message from
the crash is really unhelpful, and mumbles something about ptrace:

  | Unexpected kernel BRK exception at EL1
  | Internal error: ptrace BRK handler: f2000100 [#1] SMP

We can do better than this. Install a break handler for FAULT_BRK_IMM,
which is the immediate used to encode the "I've been asked to generate
an invalid instruction" error, and triage the faulting PC to determine
whether or not the failure occurred in the BPF JIT.
