x86/speculation: Provide IBPB always command line options

commit 55a974021ec952ee460dc31ca08722158639de72 upstream.

Provide the possibility to enable IBPB always in combination with 'prctl'
and 'seccomp'.

Add the extra command line options and rework the IBPB selection to
evaluate the command instead of the mode selected by the STIPB switch case.
