arch/tile: Change struct sigcontext to be more useful
Rather than just using pt_regs, it now contains the actual saved state explicitly, similar to pt_regs. By doing it this way, we provide a cleaner API for userspace (or equivalently, we avoid the need for libc to provide its own definition of sigcontext). While we're at it, move PT_FLAGS_xxx to where they are not visible from userspace. And always pass siginfo and mcontext to signal handlers, even if they claim they don't need it, since sometimes they actually try to use it anyway in practice.
