This register set contains the values of the fsbase and gsbase
registers. Note that these registers can already be controlled
individually via ptrace(2) via MD operations, so the main reason for
adding this is to include these register values in core dumps. In
particular, this will enable looking up the value of TLS variables
from core dumps in gdb.
The value of NT_X86_SEGBASES was chosen to match the value of
NT_386_TLS on Linux. The notes serve similar purposes, but FreeBSD
will never dump a note equivalent to NT_386_TLS (which dumps a single
segment descriptor rather than a pair of addresses) and picking a
currently-unused value in the NT_X86_* range could result in a future
conflict.

Add a elf_putregnote() helper to build the ELF note for a register

The core note matches the format and layout of NT_ARM_VFP on Linux.
Debuggers use the AT_HWCAP flags to determine how many VFP registers

In the kernel, cache the machine and flags fields from ELF header to use in
the ELF header of a core dump. For gcore, the copy these fields over from
the ELF header in the binary.
This matters for platforms which encode ABI information in the flags field
(such as o32 vs n32 on MIPS).

When threads were added to the kernel, the pr_pid member of the
NT_PRSTATUS note was repurposed to store LWP IDs instead of process
IDs. However, the process ID was no longer recorded in core dumps.
This change adds a pr_pid field to prpsinfo (NT_PRSINFO). Rather than
bumping the prpsinfo version number, note parsers can use the note's
payload size to determine if pr_pid is present.

Use size of destination buffer, rather than a constant that may or may not
correspond to the source buffer, to restrict the length of copied strings. In
particular, pr_fname has 16+1 characters but MAXCOMLEN is 18+1.
Use strlcpy instead of strncpy to ensure the result is nul-terminated. This
seems to be what is expected of these fields.

to match what Linux does in that 1) it dumps the entire XSAVE area
including the fxsave state, and 2) it stashes a copy of the current
xsave mask in the unused padding between the fxsave state and the
xstate header at the same location used by Linux.
- Teach readelf() to recognize NT_X86_XSTATE notes.
- Change PT_GET/SETXSTATE to take the entire XSAVE state instead of
only the extra portion. This avoids having to always make two
ptrace() calls to get or set the full XSAVE state.
- Add a PT_GET_XSTATE_INFO which returns the length of the current
XSTATE save area (so the size of the buffer needed for PT_GETXSTATE)
and the current XSAVE mask (%xcr0).
