[PATCH] arm64/hw_breakpoint: Define an ISS code for watchpoint exception

This defines a new ISS code macro i.e ESR_ELx_WnR for watchpoint exception.
This represents an instruction's either writing to or reading from a memory
location during an watchpoint exception, and also moves this macro into the
ESR header as required. This drops non-standard AARCH64_ESR_ACCESS_MASK.
