Instead of relying on cpuid instruction behaviour to tell which domain
type we are just try asking the kernel via the appropriate sysfs node
(added in Linux kernel 4.13).
Keep the old detection logic as a fallback for older kernels.

Pushing stuff onto the stack on x86-64 when we do not specify
-mno-red-zone is unsafe. Since the complicated asm is due to register
pressure on i386, we simply implement an all-new simpler alternative
for x86-64.

F12 introduces a tool to automatically report bugs when there are core
dumps. Since xen-detect relies on fork+waitpid in order to trap a
SIGILL from a child, every time someone runs xen-detect on a bare
metal kernel a bug is reported into Red Hat's Bugzilla. :-)
However, even without this contingent need, leaving core dumps around
is not nice. So this patch just traps SIGILL using
signal/sentjmp/longjmp, without the need to fork.
