Switch libc from using _sig{procmask,action,suspend} symbols, which

Description

Switch libc from using _sig{procmask,action,suspend} symbols, which
are aliases for the syscall stubs and are plt-interposed, to the
libc-private aliases of internally interposed sigprocmask() etc.

Since e.g. _sigaction is not interposed by libthr, calling signal()
removes thr_sighandler() from the handler slot etc. The result was
breaking signal semantic and rtld locking.

The added __libc_sigprocmask and other symbols are hidden, they are
not exported and cannot be called through PLT. The setjmp/longjmp
functions for x86 were changed to use direct calls, and since
PIC_PROLOGUE only needed for functional PLT indirection on i386, it is
removed as well.

The PowerPC bug of calling the syscall directly in the setjmp/longjmp
implementation is kept as is.
