Cleaning house a bit. Now that we have unit tests, a lot of these tests
aren't very useful anymore.

After doing some research, I've discovered that most of these tests no
longer test what they were originally intended to test.
An exception here is the 'macro-hooks' test, which is probably better
suited as an integration test, so I removed its unit test and kept its
integration test.
Really, most of these tests weren't all that useful to begin with, so
it's not a big loss. The one exception is 'gcc-static-local-var-2',
which was originally meant to test multiple static local variables with
the same name in the name function. That's a good thing, so I'll try to
come up with another test for that which works with Linux 4.16.

The test case gcc-static-local-var-2 doesn't uses any macros
from kpatch-macros.h, so remove the hunk including it.

Upstream 4.15 kernels provide support for pre and post (un)patch
callbacks, inspired by the kpatch load hooks. Add support for them
in the livepatch-patch-hook.
At the same time, convert the kpatch hooks to use the same API.
