Add support for mid-function epilogues on x86 that end in a non-local jump.

The x86 assembly inspection engine has code to support detecting a
mid-function epilogue that ends in a RET instruction; add support for 
recognizing an epilogue that ends in a JMP, and add a check that the
unwind state has been restored to the original stack setup; reinstate
the post-prologue unwind state after this JMP instruction.

The assembly inspection engine used for other architectures, 
UnwindAssemblyInstEmulation, detects mid-function epilogues by 
tracking branch instructions within the function and "forwards"
the current unwind state to the targets of the branches.  If
an epilogue unwinds the stack and exits, followed by a branch
target, we get back to the correct unwind state.  The x86 
unwinder should move to this same algorithm, or possibly even
look at implementing an x86 instruction emulation plugin and
get UnwindAssemblyInstEmulation to work for x86 too.  I added
a branch instruction recognizier method that will be necessary
if we want to switch the algorithm.
