Add support for memory references. Currently this is only
simple cases, no indirect memory references or strings,
that would require saving/restoring registers. Only 8 and 4 byte
memory references are supported.

This doesn't have any fault handling yet, so a bad reference
in the probe could result in crashing the application.

It increases the kernel memory overhead of each probe to roughly
1 KB.
