x86/fault: Dump user opcode bytes on fatal faults
Sometimes it is useful to see which user opcode bytes RIP points to when a fault happens: be it to rule out RIP corruption, to dump info early during boot, when doing core dumps is impossible due to not having a writable filesystem yet. Sometimes it is useful if debugging an issue and one doesn't have access to the executable which caused the fault in order to disassemble it. That last aspect might have some security implications so show_unhandled_signals could be revisited for that or a new config option added.
