x86/fsgsbase/64: Introduce FS/GS base helper functions

Introduce FS/GS base access functionality via <asm/fsgsbase.h>,
not yet used by anything directly.

Factor out task_seg_base() from x86/ptrace.c and rename it to
x86_fsgsbase_read_task() to make it part of the new helpers.

This will allow us to enhance FSGSBASE support and eventually enable
the FSBASE/GSBASE instructions.

An "inactive" GS base refers to a base saved at kernel entry
and being part of an inactive, non-running/stopped user-task.
(The typical ptrace model.)

Here are the new functions:

  x86_fsbase_read_task()
  x86_gsbase_read_task()
  x86_fsbase_write_task()
  x86_gsbase_write_task()
  x86_fsbase_read_cpu()
  x86_fsbase_write_cpu()
  x86_gsbase_read_cpu_inactive()
  x86_gsbase_write_cpu_inactive()

As an advantage of the unified namespace we can now see all FS/GSBASE
API use in the kernel via the following 'git grep' pattern:

  $ git grep x86_.*sbase
