signals/sigaltstack: Implement SS_AUTODISARM flag
This patch implements the SS_AUTODISARM flag that can be OR-ed with
SS_ONSTACK when forming ss_flags.
When this flag is set, sigaltstack will be disabled when entering
the signal handler; more precisely, after saving sas to uc_stack.
When leaving the signal handler, the sigaltstack is restored by
uc_stack.
When this flag is used, it is safe to switch from sighandler with
swapcontext(). Without this flag, the subsequent signal will corrupt
the state of the switched-away sighandler.
To detect the support of this functionality, one can do:
err = sigaltstack(SS_DISABLE | SS_AUTODISARM);
if (err && errno == EINVAL)
unsupported();
