Subject: [PATCH 05/11] bug: Add report_bug_entry()

Add a report_bug() variant where the bug_entry is already known. This
is useful when the exception instruction is not instantiated per-site.
But instead has a single instance. In such a case the bug_entry
address might be passed along in a known register or something.
