perf: Add irq and exception return branch types
This expands generic branch type classification by adding two more entries there in i.e irq and exception return. Also updates the x86 implementation to process X86_BR_IRET and X86_BR_IRQ records as appropriate. This changes branch types reported to user space on x86 platform but it should not be a problem. The possible scenarios and impacts are enumerated here.
