signal: Move sys_siglist to a compat symbol
The symbol was deprecated by strsignal and its usage imposes issues
such as copy relocations.

Its internal name is changed to __sys_siglist and __sys_sigabbrev to
avoid static linking usage.  The compat code is also refactored, since
both Linux and Hurd usage the same strategy: export the same array with
different object sizes.

The libSegfault change avoids calling strsignal on the SIGFAULT signal
handler (the current usage is already sketchy, adding a call that
potentially issue locale internal function is even sketchier).

Checked on x86_64-linux-gnu and i686-linux-gnu. I also run a check-abi
on all affected platforms.
