RET_KILL_THREAD doesn't work well for Go because it will
kill only the offending thread and leave the process hanging.
RET_TRAP can be masked out and it's not guaranteed to kill
the process. RET_KILL_PROCESS is available since 4.14.
For older kernel, continue to use RET_TRAP as this is the
best option (likely to kill process, easy to debug).

Pseudoterminal job control signals are meant to be received and handled by the
sandbox process, but if the ptrace stubs are running in the same process group,
they will receive the signals as well and inject then into the sentry kernel.
This can result in duplicate signals being delivered (often to the wrong
process), or a sentry panic if the ptrace stub is inactive.
This CL makes the ptrace stub run in a new session.

This change also adds extensive testing to the p9 package via mocks. The sanity
checks and type checks are moved from the gofer into the core package, where
they can be more easily validated.

This is a defense-in-depth measure. If the sentry is compromised, this prevents
system call injection to the stubs. There is some complexity with respect to
ptrace and seccomp interactions, so this protection is not really available
for kernel versions < 4.8; this is detected dynamically.
Note that this also solves the vsyscall emulation issue by adding in
appropriate trapping for those system calls. It does mean that a compromised
sentry could theoretically inject these into the stub (ignoring the trap and
resume, thereby allowing execution), but they are harmless.

runApp.execute -> Task.SendSignal -> sendSignalLocked -> sendSignalTimerLocked
-> pendingSignals.enqueue assumes that it owns the arch.SignalInfo returned
from platform.Context.Switch.
On the other hand, ptrace.context.Switch assumes that it owns the returned
SignalInfo and can safely reuse it on the next call to Switch. The KVM platform
always returns a unique SignalInfo.
This becomes a problem when the returned signal is not immediately delivered,
allowing a future signal in Switch to change the previous pending SignalInfo.
This is noticeable in #38 when external SIGINTs are delivered from the PTY
slave FD. Note that the ptrace stubs are in the same process group as the
sentry, so they are eligible to receive the PTY signals. This should probably
change, but is not the only possible cause of this bug.

We have been unnecessarily creating too many savable types implicitly.

If the child stubs are killed by any unmaskable signal (e.g. SIGKILL), then
the parent process will similarly be killed, resulting in the death of all
other stubs.
The effect of this is that if the OOM killer selects and kills a stub, the
effect is the same as though the OOM killer selected and killed the sentry.
