kprobes: Jump optimization sysctl interface

Add /proc/sys/debug/kprobes-optimization sysctl which enables
and disables kprobes jump optimization on the fly for debugging.

Changes in v7:
 - Remove ctl_name = CTL_UNNUMBERED for upstream compatibility.

Changes in v6:
- Update comments and coding style.
