signal: Simplify tracehook_report_syscall_exit
Replace user_single_step_siginfo with user_single_step_report that allocates siginfo structure on the stack and sends it. This allows tracehook_report_syscall_exit to become a simple if statement that calls user_single_step_report or ptrace_report_syscall depending on the value of step. Update the default helper function now called user_single_step_report to explicitly set si_code to SI_USER and to set si_uid and si_pid to 0. The default helper has always been doing this (using memset) but it was far from obvious. The powerpc helper can now just call force_sig_fault. The x86 helper can now just call send_sigtrap. Unfortunately the default implementation of user_single_step_report can not use force_sig_fault as it does not use a SIGTRAP si_code. So it has to carefully setup the siginfo and use use force_sig_info. The net result is code that is easier to understand and simpler to maintain.
