rseq/selftests: Ensure the rseq ABI TLS is actually 1024 bytes

Adding the aligned(1024) attribute to the definition of __rseq_abi did
not increase its size to 1024, for this attribute to impact the size of
__rseq_abi it would need to be added to the declaration of 'struct
rseq_abi'. We only want to increase the size of the TLS allocation to
ensure registration will succeed with future extended ABI. Use a union
with a dummy member to ensure we allocate 1024 bytes.
