Add support for Arm64 including all changes in PR #1302 (@swine, @surajjs95, @t-msn, and others)

[puranjaymohan]

This is a rebase of #1302 with some more changes and some already merged patches removed.
It is supposed to work with the sframe based reliable stack unwinder posted upstream:

[PATCH 0/8] unwind, arm64: add sframe unwinder for kernel

NOTE:

• The sframe sections are skipped for now in the livepatch module because the above series doesn't support modules yet. I am trying to make that work both from the kernel side and also in Kpatch and will add a patch later.

Building and testing a livepatch on a 6.12 arm64 kernel for the following basic patch:

[ec2-user@ip-172-31-32-86 ~]$ cat CVE-1234-5678.patch
