runtime, syscall: reimplement AllThreadsSyscall using only signals.
In issue 50113, we see that a thread blocked in a system call can result in a hang of AllThreadsSyscall. To resolve this, we must send a signal to these threads to knock them out of the system call long enough to run the per-thread syscall. Stepping back, if we need to send signals anyway, it should be possible to implement this entire mechanism on top of signals. This CL does so, vastly simplifying the mechanism, both as a direct result of newly-unnecessary code as well as some ancillary simplifications to make things simpler to follow. Major changes: * The rest of the mechanism is moved to os_linux.go, with fields in mOS instead of m itself. * 'Fixup' fields and functions are renamed to 'perThreadSyscall' so they are more precise about their purpose. * Rather than getting passed a closure, doAllThreadsSyscall takes the syscall number and arguments. This avoids a lot of hairy behavior: * The closure may potentially only be live in fields in the M, hidden from the GC. Not necessary with no closure. * The need to loan out the race context. A direct RawSyscall6 call does not require any race context. * The closure previously conditionally panicked in strange locations, like a signal handler. Now we simply throw. * All manual fixup synchronization with mPark, sysmon, templateThread, sigqueue, etc is gone. The core approach is much simpler: doAllThreadsSyscall sends a signal to every thread in allm, which executes the system call from the signal handler. We use (SIGRTMIN + 1), aka SIGSETXID, the same signal used by glibc for this purpose. As such, we are careful to only handle this signal on non-cgo binaries. Synchronization with thread creation is a key part of this CL. The comment near the top of doAllThreadsSyscall describes the required synchronization semantics and how they are achieved. Note that current use of allocmLock protects the state mutations of allm that are also protected by sched.lock. allocmLock is used instead of sched.lock simply to avoid holding sched.lock for so long.
