Add support for the unwind user FP/RA recovery rule "unknown". For the frame pointer (FP) set the FP value to zero, so that subsequent unwind next frame that rely on FP fail. For the return address (RA) treat as error.
This enables to implement support for unwinding of user space using back chain on s390 with a subsequent commit, which can only unwind SP and RA, but not FP.
