nptl: Add rseq registration

The rseq area is placed directly into struct pthread.  rseq
registration failure is not treated as an error, so it is possible
that threads run with inconsistent registration status.

<sys/rseq.h> is not yet installed as a public header.

+   It is a 32-bit value that maps to actual architecture code compiled

+   architecture.  When choosing this value, it needs to be taken into
+   account that generating invalid instructions may have ill effects on
+   tools like objdump, and may also have impact on the CPU speculative
+   execution efficiency in some cases.
