The previous patch ("function_graph: Support recording and printing
the return value of function") has laid the groundwork for the for
the funcgraph-retval, and this modification makes it available on
the ARM64 platform.

We introduce a new structure called fgraph_ret_regs for the ARM64
platform to hold return registers and the frame pointer. We then
fill its content in the return_to_handler and pass its address to
the function ftrace_return_to_handler to record the return value.
