vsprintf: add support for '%pS' and '%pF' pointer formats

They print out a pointer in symbolic format, if possible (ie using
symbolic KALLSYMS information).  The '%pS' format is for regular direct
pointers (which can point to data or code and that you find on the stack
during backtraces etc), while '%pF' is for C function pointer types.

On most architectures, the two mean exactly the same thing, but some
architectures use an indirect pointer for C function pointers, where the
function pointer points to a function descriptor (which in turn contains
the actual pointer to the code).  The '%pF' code automatically does the
appropriate function descriptor dereference on such architectures.
