mach: Define MACHINE_THREAD_STATE_SETUP_CALL

The existing two macros, MACHINE_THREAD_STATE_SET_PC and
MACHINE_THREAD_STATE_SET_SP, can be used to set program counter and the
stack pointer registers in a machine-specific thread state structure.

Useful as it is, this may not be enough to set up the thread to make a
function call, because the machine-specific ABI may impose additional
requirements. In particular, x86_64 ABI requires that upon function
entry, the stack pointer is 8 less than 16-byte aligned (sp & 15 == 8).

To deal with this, introduce a new macro,
MACHINE_THREAD_STATE_SETUP_CALL (), which sets both stack and
instruction pointers, and also applies any machine-specific requirements
to make a valid function call. The default implementation simply
forwards to MACHINE_THREAD_STATE_SET_PC and MACHINE_THREAD_STATE_SET_SP,
but on x86_64 we additionally align the stack pointer.
