while the sh port is still experimental and subject to ABI
instability, this is not actually an application/libc boundary ABI
change. it only affects third-party APIs where jmp_buf is used in a
shared structure at the ABI boundary, because nothing anywhere near
the end of the jmp_buf object (which includes the oversized sigset_t)
is accessed by libc.
both glibc and uclibc have 15-slot jmp_buf for sh. presumably the
smaller version was used in musl because the slots for fpu status
register and thread pointer register (gbr) were incorrect and must not
be restored by longjmp, but the size should have been preserved, as
it's generally treated as a libc-agnostic ABI property for the arch,
and having extra slots free in case we ever need them for something is
useful anyway.

these are perfectly fine with ld-time symbol binding, but if the calls
go through a PLT thunk, they are invalid because the caller does not
setup a GOT register. use a hidden alias to bypass the issue.

the conventional way to implement sigsetjmp is to save the signal mask
then tail-call to setjmp; siglongjmp then restores the signal mask and
calls longjmp. the problem with this approach is that a signal already
pending, or arriving between unmasking of signals and restoration of
the saved stack pointer, will have its signal handler run on the stack
that was active before siglongjmp was called. this can lead to
unbounded stack usage when siglongjmp is used to leave a signal
handler.
in the new design, sigsetjmp saves its own return address inside the
extended part of the sigjmp_buf (outside the __jmp_buf part used by
setjmp) then calls setjmp to save a jmp_buf inside its own execution.
it then tail-calls to __sigsetjmp_tail, which uses the return value of
setjmp to determine whether to save the current signal mask or restore
a previously-saved mask.
as an added bonus, this design makes it so that siglongjmp and longjmp
are identical. this is useful because the __longjmp_chk function we
need to add for ABI-compatibility assumes siglongjmp and longjmp are
the same, but for different reasons -- it was designed assuming either
can access a flag just past the __jmp_buf indicating whether the
signal masked was saved, and act on that flag. however, early versions
of musl did not have space past the __jmp_buf for the non-sigjmp_buf
version of jmp_buf, so our setjmp cannot store such a flag without
risking clobbering memory on (very) old binaries.

linux, gcc, etc. all use "sh" as the name for the superh arch. there
was already some inconsistency internally in musl: the dynamic linker
was searching for "ld-musl-sh.path" as its path file despite its own
name being "ld-musl-superh.so.1". there was some sentiment in both
directions as to how to resolve the inconsistency, but overall "sh"
was favored.
