ENDBR is a special new instruction for the Indirect Branch Tracking (IBT) component of CET. IBT prevents attacks by ensuring that (most) indirect branches and function calls may only land at ENDBR instructions. Branches that don't follow the rules will result in control flow (#CF) exceptions. ENDBR is a noop when IBT is unsupported or disabled. Most ENDBR instructions are inserted automatically by the compiler, but branch targets written in assembly must have ENDBR added manually. There are two ENDBR versions: endbr64 and endbr32. The compilers (gcc and clang) have _CET_ENDBR defined for the proper one. Introduce ENDBR macro, which equals the compiler macro when enabled, otherwise nothing.
