lttng-statedump-impl: Use generic hard irqs for Linux >= 3.12

> The Linux kernel 3.12 uses the generic hard irqs system for all
> architectures and dropped the GENERIC_HARDIRQ option, as can be seen
> at the commit quoted below:

Introduce wrapper/irq.h to move the feature availability testing logic
into a specific wrapper header. It now tests if the kernel version is
>= 3.12 or if CONFIG_GENERIC_HARDIRQS is defined (for older kernels).
Introduce the lttng-specific CONFIG_LTTNG_HAS_LIST_IRQ to track
availability of this feature within LTTng.
