objtool: Split INSN_CONTEXT_SWITCH into INSN_SYSCALL and INSN_SYSRET

INSN_CONTEXT_SWITCH is ambiguous.  It can represent both call semantics
(SYSCALL, SYSENTER) and return semantics (SYSRET, IRET, RETS, RETU).
Those differ significantly: calls preserve control flow whereas returns
terminate it.

Objtool uses an arbitrary rule for INSN_CONTEXT_SWITCH that almost works
by accident: if in a function, keep going; otherwise stop.  It should
instead be based on the semantics of the underlying instruction.

In preparation for improving that, split INSN_CONTEXT_SWITCH into
INSN_SYCALL and INSN_SYSRET.

No functional change.
