- Change linux_get_prison() to take a thread instead of a proc for its

because a thread's prison does not change even though it's ucred might.
- Also, change linux_get_prison() to return a struct prison * instead of
a struct linux_prison * since it returns with the struct prison locked
and this makes it easier to safely unlock the prison when we are done
messing with it.

First half of implementation of ksiginfo, signal queues, and such. This
gets signals operating based on a TailQ, and is good enough to run X11,
GNOME, and do job control. There are some intricate parts which could be
more refined to match the sigset_t versions, but those require further
evaluation of directions in which our signal system can expand and contract
to fit our needs.

After this has been in the tree for a while, I will make in kernel API
changes, most notably to trapsignal(9) and sendsig(9), to use ksiginfo
more robustly, such that we can actually pass information with our
(queued) signals to the userland. That will also result in using a
struct ksiginfo pointer, rather than a signal number, in a lot of
kern_sig.c, to refer to an individual pending signal queue member, but
right now there is no defined behaviour for such.

CODAFS is unfinished in this regard because the logic is unclear in
some places.

Use the fields in the sysentvec and in the vm map header in place of the

This is mainly so that they can be variable even for the native abi, based

This makes it trivial to map the stack non-executable for certain abis, on

returns.

Lock struct pgrp, session and sigio.

New locks are:

- pgrpsess_lock which locks the whole pgrps and sessions,
- pg_mtx which protects the pgrp members, and
- s_mtx which protects the session members.

Please refer to sys/proc.h for the coverage of these locks.

Changes on the pgrp/session interface:

- pgfind() needs the pgrpsess_lock held.

- The caller of enterpgrp() is responsible to allocate a new pgrp and
session.

- Call enterthispgrp() in order to enter an existing pgrp.

- pgsignal() requires a pgrp lock held.
