Save shadow stack pointer in sigcontext structure while delivering signal.
Restore shadow stack pointer from sigcontext on sigreturn.

As part of save operation, kernel uses `ssamoswap` to save snapshot of
current shadow stack on shadow stack itself (can be called as a save
token). During restore on sigreturn, kernel retrieves token from top of
shadow stack and validates it. This allows that user mode can't arbitrary
pivot to any shadow stack address without having a token and thus provide
strong security assurance between signaly delivery and sigreturn window.

Use ABI compatible way of saving/restoring shadow stack pointer into
signal stack. This follows what Vector extension, where extra registers
are placed in a form of extension header + extension body in the stack.
The extension header indicates the size of the extra architectural
states plus the size of header itself, and a magic identifier of the
extension. Then, the extensions body contains the new architectural
states in the form defined by uapi.
