linux: Consolidate sigaction implementation
This patch consolidates all Linux sigaction implementations on the default
sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/sigaction.c.  The idea is remove redundant code
and simplify new ports addition by following the current generic
Linux User API (UAPI).

The UAPI for new ports defines a generic extensible sigaction struct as:

  struct sigaction
  {
    __sighandler_t sa_handler;
    unsigned long sa_flags;
  #ifdef SA_RESTORER
    void (*sa_restorer) (void);
  #endif
    sigset_t sa_mask;
  };

Where SA_RESTORER is just placed for compatibility reasons (news ports
should not add it).  A similar definition is used on generic
kernel_sigaction.h.

The user exported sigaction definition is not changed, so for most
architectures it requires an adjustment to kernel expected one for the
syscall.

The main changes are:

  - All architectures now define and use a kernel_sigaction struct meant
    for the syscall, even for the architectures where the user sigaction
    has the same layout of the kernel expected one (s390-64 and ia64).
    Although it requires more work for these architectures, it simplifies
    the generic implementation. Also, sigaction is hardly a hotspot where
    micro optimization would play an important role.

  - The generic kernel_sigaction definition is now aligned with expected
    UAPI one for newer ports, where SA_RESTORER and sa_restorer are not
    expected to be defined.  This means adding kernel_sigaction for
    current architectures that does define it (m68k, nios2, powerpc, s390,
    sh, sparc, and tile) and which rely on previous generic definition.

  - Remove old MIPS usage of sa_restorer.  This was removed since 2.6.27
    (2957c9e61ee9c - "[MIPS] IRIX: Goodbye and thanks for all the fish").

  - The remaining arch-specific sigaction.c are to handle ABI idiosyncrasies
    (like SPARC kernel ABI for rt_sigaction that requires an additional
    stub argument).

So for new ports the generic implementation should work if its uses
Linux UAPI.  If SA_RESTORER is still required (due some architecture
limitation), it should define its own kernel_sigaction.h, define it and
include generic header (assuming it still uses the default generic kernel
layout).

Checked on x86_64-linux-gnu, i686-linux-gnu, arm-linux-gnueabihf,
aarch64-linux-gnu, sparc64-linux-gnu, sparcv9-linux-gnu, powerpc-linux-gnu,
powerpc64-linux-gnu, ia64-linux-gnu and alpha-linux-gnu.  I also checked the
build on all remaining affected ABIs.
