Note that to cancel blocked kevent(2) call, changelist must be empty,
since we cannot cancel a call which already made changes to the
process state. And in reverse, call which only makes changes to the
kqueue state, without waiting for an event, is not cancellable. This
makes a natural usage model to migrate kqueue loop to support
cancellation, where existing single kevent(2) call must be split into
two: first uncancellable update of kqueue, then cancellable wait for
events.
Note that this is ABI-incompatible change, but it is believed that
there is no cancel-safe code that relies on kevent(2) not being a
cancellation point. Option to preserve the ABI would be to keep
kevent(2) as is, but add new call with flags to specify cancellation
behaviour, which only value seems to add complications.

(or loading a dso linked to libthr.so into process which was not
linked against threading library).
- Remove libthr interposers of the libc functions, including
__error(). Instead, functions calls are indirected through the
interposing table, similar to how pthread stubs in libc are already
done. Libc by default points either to syscall trampolines or to
existing libc implementations. On libthr load, libthr rewrites the
pointers to the cancellable implementations already in libthr. The
interposition table is separate from pthreads stubs indirection
table to not pull pthreads stubs into static binaries.
- Postpone the malloc(3) internal mutexes initialization until libthr
is loaded. This avoids recursion between calloc(3) and static
pthread_mutex_t initialization.
- Reinstall signal handlers with wrapper on libthr load. The
_rtld_is_dlopened(3) is used to avoid useless calls to sigaction(2)
when libthr is statically referenced from the main binary.
In the process, fix openat(2), swapcontext(2) and setcontext(2)
interposing. The libc symbols were exported at different versions
than libthr interposers. Export both libc and libthr versions from
libc now, with default set to the higher version from libthr.
Remove unused and disconnected swapcontext(3) userspace implementation
from libc/gen.

kqueue(2) already supports EVFILT_PROC. Add an EVFILT_PROCDESC that
behaves the same, but operates on a procdesc(4) instead. Only implement
NOTE_EXIT for now. The nice thing about NOTE_EXIT is that it also
returns the exit status of the process, meaning that we can now obtain
this value, even if pdwait4(2) is still unimplemented.
Notes:
- Simply reuse EVFILT_NETDEV for EVFILT_PROCDESC. As both of these will
be used on totally different descriptor types, this should not clash.
- Let procdesc_kqops_event() reuse the same structure as filt_proc().
The only difference is that procdesc_kqops_event() should also be able
to deal with the case where the process was already terminated after
registration. Simply test this when hint == 0.
- Fix some style(9) issues in filt_proc() to keep it consistent with the
newly added procdesc_kqops_event().
- Save the exit status of the process in pd->pd_xstat, as we cannot pick
up the proctree_lock from within procdesc_kqops_event().

The pdfork(2) man page states:
"pdfork() returns a PID, 0 or -1, as fork(2) does."
As it returns a PID, the return type should obviously be pid_t. As int
and pid_t have the same size on all architectures, this change does not
affect the ABI in any way.
