[BOLT][BTI] Add MCPlusBuilder::insertBTI

[bgergely0]

This function contains most of the logic for BTI:

• it takes the BasicBlock and the instruction used to jump to it.
• then it checks if the first non-pseudo instruction is a sufficient
  landing pad for the used call.
• if not, it generates the correct BTI instruction.

Also introduce the isCallCoveredByBTI helper to simplify the logic.

The assertion needs fixing before this can land, but otherwise LGTM - will give approval once fixed. Also made some other minor suggestions.
