[S390] add breaking event address for user space

Copy the last breaking event address from the lowcore to a new
field in the thread_struct on each system entry. Add a new
ptrace request PTRACE_GET_LAST_BREAK and a new utrace regset
REGSET_LAST_BREAK to query the last breaking event.

This is useful for debugging wild branches in user space code.
