uml: floating point signal delivery fixes



Handle floating point state in across signals correctly.  UML/i386 needs to
know whether the host does PTRACE_[GS]ETFPXREGS, so an arch_init_registers
hook is added, which on x86_64 does nothing.

UML doesn't save and restore floating point registers on kernel entry and
exit, so they need to be copied between the host process and the sigcontext.
save_fpx_registers and restore_fpx_registers are added for this purpose.
save_fp_registers and restore_fp_registers already exist.

There was a bunch of floating point state conversion code in
arch/um/sys-i386/ptrace.c which isn't needed there, but is needed in signal.c,
so it is moved over.

The i386 code now distinguishes between fp and fpx state and handles them
correctly.  The x86_64 code just needs to copy state as-is between the host
process and the stack.  There are also some fixes there to pass the correct
address of the floating point state around.
