[v4,2/4] x86/elf: Support a new ELF aux vector AT_MINSIGSTKSZ

  Historically, signal.h defines MINSIGSTKSZ (2KB) and SIGSTKSZ (8KB), for
use by all architectures with sigaltstack(2). Over time, the hardware state
size grew, but these constants did not evolve. Today, literal use of these
constants on several architectures may result in signal stack overflow, and
thus user data corruption.

A few years ago, the ARM team addressed this issue by establishing
getauxval(AT_MINSIGSTKSZ), such that the kernel can supply at runtime value
that is an appropriate replacement on the current and future hardware.

Add getauxval(AT_MINSIGSTKSZ) support to x86, analogous to the support
added for ARM in commit 94b07c1f8c39 ("arm64: signal: Report signal frame
size to userspace via auxv").

The value of AT_MINSIGSTKSZ has been generic ABI for all architectures since
2018 when it was added to glibc's generic elf.h because of arm64.

Rather than define this just for x86 may we please put this into the generic
headers, since it has been there since 2018?

Any userspace code that might be inspecting for AT_MINSIGSTKSZ is going to
expect a value of 51.

No other architecture has a define for value 51. This way we avoid any accidents
with the value being different for architectures.

This definition should go into the generic auxvec.h.

We could also remove the arm64 define, but that is orthogonal arch cleanup.
