rseq/selftests: mips: use break instruction for RSEQ_SIG
Use break as guard instruction for the restartable sequence abort handler. Previously, the chosen signature was simply data, based on the assumption that it could always sit in a literal pool. However, some compilation environments favor disabling literal pool. Therefore, ensure the signature is a valid uncommon trap instruction.
