RFR: 8294211: Zero: Decode arch-specific error context if possible [v2]

> After POSIX signal refactorings, Zero error handling had "regressed" a bit: Zero always gets `NULL` as `pc` in error handling code, and thus it fails with SEGV at pc=0x0. We can do better by implementing context decoding where possible.
> 
> Unfortunately, this introduces some arch-specific code in Zero code. The arch-specific code is copy-pasted (with inline definitions, if needed) from the relevant `os_linux_*.cpp` files. The unimplemented arches would still report the same confusing `hs_err`-s. We can emulate (and thus test) the generic behavior using new diagnostic VM option.

> public class Crash {

>     f.setAccessible(true);
>     Unsafe u = (Unsafe) f.get(null);
>     u.getInt(42); // accesing via broken ptr
>   }
