Currently, text_poke_bp() is very strict to only allow patching a single instruction; however with straight-line-speculation it will be required to patch: ret; int3, which is two instructions. As such, relax the constraints a little to allow int3 padding for all instructions that do not imply the execution of the next instruction, ie: RET, JMP.d8 and JMP.d32. While there, rename the text_poke_loc::rel32 field to ::disp. Note: this fills up the text_poke_loc structure which is now a round 16 bytes big.
