<title>xtensa: don't use alternate signal stack on threads</title>

According to create_thread(3): "The new thread does not inherit the creating
thread's alternate signal stack". Since commit f9a3879a (Fix sigaltstack
corruption among cloned threads), current-&gt;sas_ss_size is set to 0 for cloned
processes sharing VM with their parent. Don't use the (nonexistent) alternate
signal stack in this case. This has been broken since commit 29c4dfd9 ([XTENSA]
Remove non-rt signal handling).

Fixes the SA_ONSTACK part of the nptl/tst-cancel20 test from uClibc.

The Xtensa architecture provides a global register called THREADPTR
for the purpose of Thread Local Storage (TLS) support. This allows us
to use a fairly simple implementation, keeping the thread pointer in
the regset and simply saving and restoring it upon entering/exiting
the from user space.

Does block_sigmask() + tracehook_signal_handler();  called when
sigframe has been successfully built.  All architectures converted
to it; block_sigmask() itself is gone now (merged into this one).

I'm still not too happy with the signature, but that's a separate
story (IMO we need a structure that would contain signal number +
siginfo + k_sigaction, so that get_signal_to_deliver() would fill one,
signal_delivered(), handle_signal() and probably setup...frame() -
take one).

Only 3 out of 63 do not.  Renamed the current variant to __set_current_blocked(),
added set_current_blocked() that will exclude unblockable signals, switched
open-coded instances to it.
