x86: add testcases for RODATA and NX protections/attributes

Latest update; I now have 4 NX tests, but 2 fail so they're #if 0'd.
I also cleaned up the NX test code quite a bit, and got rid of the ugly
exception table sorting stuff.

From: Arjan van de Ven <arjan@linux.intel.com>

This patch adds testcases for the CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA configuration option
as well as the NX CPU feature/mappings. Both testcases can move to tests/
once that patch gets merged into mainline.
(I'm half considering moving the rodata test into mm/init.c but I'll
wait with that until init.c is unified)

As part of this I had to fix a not-quite-right alignment in the vmlinux.lds.h
for the RODATA sections, which lead to 1 page less being marked read only.
