Subject: [PATCH v8 18/27] arm64/hw_breakpoint: Add arch_reinstall_hw_breakpoint

Add arch_reinstall_hw_breakpoint() to restore a hardware breakpoint
in an atomic context. Unlike the full uninstall and reallocation
path, this lightweight function re-establishes an existing breakpoint
efficiently and safely.

This aligns ARM64 with x86 support for atomic breakpoint reinstalls.
