Subject: [PATCH v5 13/13] selftests/sgx: Remove incomplete ABI sanitization code in test enclave

As the selftest enclave is *not* intended for production, simplify the
code by not initializing CPU configuration registers as expected by the
ABI on enclave entry or cleansing caller-save registers on enclave exit.
