signal: Turn SIGNAL_STOP_DEQUEUED into GROUP_STOP_DEQUEUED

This patch moves SIGNAL_STOP_DEQUEUED from signal_struct->flags to
task_struct->group_stop, and thus makes it per-thread.

Like SIGNAL_STOP_DEQUEUED, GROUP_STOP_DEQUEUED can be false-positive
after return from get_signal_to_deliver(), this is fine. The only
purpose of this bit is: we can drop ->siglock after __dequeue_signal()
returns the sig_kernel_stop() signal and before we call
do_signal_stop(), in this case we must not miss SIGCONT if it comes in
between.

But, unlike SIGNAL_STOP_DEQUEUED, GROUP_STOP_DEQUEUED can not be
false-positive in do_signal_stop() if multiple threads dequeue the
sig_kernel_stop() signal at the same time.

Consider two threads T1 and T2, SIGTTIN has a hanlder.

	- T1 dequeues SIGTSTP and sets SIGNAL_STOP_DEQUEUED, then
	  it drops ->siglock

	- SIGCONT comes and clears SIGNAL_STOP_DEQUEUED, SIGTSTP
	  should be cancelled.

	- T2 dequeues SIGTTIN and sets SIGNAL_STOP_DEQUEUED again.
	  Since we have a handler we should not stop, T2 returns
	  to usermode to run the handler.

	- T1 continues, calls do_signal_stop() and wrongly starts
	  the group stop because SIGNAL_STOP_DEQUEUED was restored
	  in between.

With or without this change:

	- we need to do something with ptrace_signal() which can
	  return SIGSTOP, but this needs another discussion

	- SIGSTOP can be lost if it races with the mt exec, will
	  be fixed later.
