[RFC PATCH 01/13] arch: add HAVE_REINSTALL_HW_BREAKPOINT

Some architectures can update the address, length or type of an
installed hardware breakpoint in place, without releasing and
re-reserving its slot. Add an opt-in Kconfig symbol so generic code
can offer such an operation on architectures that implement
arch_reinstall_hw_breakpoint().

This is a prerequisite for KWatch, which re-points preallocated
per-CPU breakpoints from atomic context, where the register/release
path (which may sleep and rebalances slot constraints) cannot be
used.
