x86, ptrace: add buffer size checks

Pass the buffer size for (most) ptrace commands that pass user-allocated buffers and check that size before accessing the buffer. Unfortunately, PTRACE_BTS_GET already uses all 4 parameters.
Commands that access user buffers return the number of bytes or records read or written.
