The x86 OP_*fence opcodes were marked with inaccurate categories in the original PR #6308. Here we change all 3 to DR_INSTR_CATEGORY_STATE under the logic that the STATE category is the one most likely to be interpreted as a barrier by a simulator. (If we add an ATOMIC category in the future we'll switch to that.) Issue: #6238
