ring0.Save/LoadFloatingPoint() are only usable if the caller can ensure that Go
will not clobber floating point registers before/after calling them
respectively. Due to regabig in Go 1.17, this is no longer the case; regabig
(among other things) maintains a zeroed XMM15 during ABIInternal execution,
including by zeroing it after ABI0-to-ABIInternal transitions. In
ring0.sysenter/exception, this happens in
ring0.kernelSyscall/kernelException.abi0 respectively; in
ring0.CPU.SwitchToUser, this happens after returning from
ring0.sysret/iret.abi0. Delete these functions and do floating point save/load
in assembly.
While arm64 doesn't appear to be immediately affected (so this CL permits us to
resume usage of Go 1.17), its use of Save/LoadFloatingPoint() still seems to be
incorrect for the same fundamental reason (Go code can't sanely assume what
registers the Go compiler will or won't use) and should be fixed eventually.

This allows the package to serve as a general purpose ring0 support package, as
opposed to being bound to specific sentry platforms.
