Correct sysent flags for dynamically loaded syscalls.

Using the https://github.com/google/capsicum-test/ suite, the
PosixMqueue.CapModeForked test was failing due to an ECAPMODE after
calling kmq_notify(). On further inspection, the dynamically
loaded syscall entry was initialized with sy_flags zeroed out, since
SYSCALL_INIT_HELPER() left sysent.sy_flags with the default value.

Add a new helper SYSCALL{,32}_INIT_HELPER_F() which takes an
additional argument to specify the sy_flags value.

Move struct syscall_args syscall arguments parameters container into
struct thread.

For all architectures, the syscall trap handlers have to allocate the
structure on the stack. The structure takes 88 bytes on 64bit arches
which is not negligible. Also, it cannot be easily found by other
code, which e.g. caused duplication of some members of the structure
to struct thread already. The change removes td_dbg_sc_code and
td_dbg_sc_nargs which were directly copied from syscall_args.

The structure is put into the copied on fork part of the struct thread
to make the syscall arguments information correct in the child after
fork.

This move will also allow several more uses shortly.

Support an arbitrary number of arguments to DTrace syscall probes.

Rather than pushing all eight possible arguments into dtrace_probe()'s
stack frame, make the syscall_args struct for the current syscall available
via the current thread. Using a custom getargval method for the systrace
provider, this allows any syscall argument to be fetched, even in kernels
that have modified the maximum number of system call arguments.

Remove sv_prepsyscall, sv_sigsize and sv_sigtbl members of the struct
sysent.

sv_prepsyscall is unused.

sv_sigsize and sv_sigtbl translate signal number from the FreeBSD
namespace into the ABI domain. It is only utilized on i386 for iBCS2
binaries. The issue with this approach is that signals for iBCS2 were
delivered with the FreeBSD signal frame layout, which does not follow
iBCS2. The same note is true for any other potential user if
sv_sigtbl. In other words, if ABI needs signal number translation, it
really needs custom sv_sendsig method instead.

Split kerne timekeep ABI structure vdso_sv_tk out of the struct
sysentvec. This allows the timekeep data to be shared between similar
ABIs which cannot share sysentvec.

Make the timekeep_push_vdso() tick callback to the timekeep structures
instead of sysentvecs. If several sysentvec share the vdso_sv_tk
structure, we would update the userspace data several times on each
tick, without the change.

Only allocate vdso_sv_tk in the exec_sysvec_init() sysinit when
sysentvec is marked with the new SV_TIMEKEEP flag. This saves
allocation and update of unneeded vdso_sv_tk for ABIs which do not
provide userspace gettimeofday yet, which are PowerPCs arches right
now.

Make vdso_sv_tk allocator public, namely split out and export
alloc_sv_tk() and alloc_sv_tk_compat32(). ABIs which share timekeep
data now can allocate it manually and share as appropriate.
