Increasing coverage of signal semantics in regression tests



Kernel signal code is a complex maze, it's very difficult to introduce
non-trivial changes without regressions. Over the past month I worked on
covering missing elementary scenarios involving the ptrace(2) API. Part
of the new tests were marked as expected to success, however a number of
them are expected to fail.

Plan for the next milestone

Keep preparing kernel fixes and after thorough verification applying
them to the mainline.

This work was sponsored by The NetBSD Foundation.
