selftests/x86: Add a test for vDSO unwinding

While the kernel itself doesn't use DWARF unwinding, user code
expects to be able to unwind the vDSO.  The vsyscall
(AT_SYSINFO) entry is manually CFI-annotated, and this tests
that it unwinds correctly.

I tested the test by incorrectly annotating __kernel_vsyscall,
and the test indeed fails if I do that.
