arm32: fold UNWIND(.fnstart/.fnend) into the FUNC macros

arm32: fold UNWIND(.fnstart/.fnend) into the FUNC macros
This change applies to arm32 assembler sources.
Instead of using UNWIND(.fnstart) after FUNC or LOCAL_FUNC and
UNWIND(.fnend) before END_FUNC, let's fold these statements into the
FUNC macros.
The .fnstart/.fnend directives mark the start and end of a function
with an unwind table entry (.ARM.exidx) and therefore a function
without them has no entry and cannot be unwound. This means that a
stack dump (on abort or panic) would stop when reaching such a
function.
As a result of this patch, a small number of functions now have an
entry in the unwind table when they had none before (the functions
which were using FUNC or LOCAL_FUNC but had no .fnstart/.fnend). It was
almost always a bug and this pacth only increases the size of the
.ARM.exidx section by a few bytes (tested on QEMU).
