xen/console: Optimise the parameter order of vprintk_common()

For ABIs which pass parameters by register (all cases that we compile Xen
for), inserting new arguments on the left hand side involves shuffling all
other parameters along by one register whereas appending a new argument
doesn't involve shuffling of existing registers.

Reorder vprintk_common()'s prefix parameter to being last.  This is a marginal
improvement on all architectures:

  Function                              old     new   delta
  vprintk                                18      12      -6  x86
  vprintk                                32      24      -8  arm32
  vprintk                                52      48      -4  arm64
  vprintk                                52      48      -4  riscv64
  vprintk                                80      72      -8  ppc64
