x86: Introduce 'struct fpu' and related API
Currently all fpu state access is through tsk->thread.xstate. Since we wish to generalize fpu access to non-task contexts, wrap the state in a new 'struct fpu' and convert existing access to use an fpu API. Signal frame handlers are not converted to the API since they will remain task context only things.
