rename FPBASE to _FPBASE, so that we avoid polluting the user's

* DPSRCS contains extra dependencies, but is _NOT_ added to CLEANFILES.
This is a change of behaviour. If a Makefile wants the clean semantics
it must specifically append to CLEANFILES.
Resolves PR toolchain/5204.
* To recap: .d (depend) files are generated for all files in SRCS and DPSRCS
that have a suffix of: .c .m .s .S .C .cc .cpp .cxx
* If YHEADER is set, automatically add the .y->.h to DPSRCS & CLEANFILES
* Ensure that ${OBJS} ${POBJS} ${LOBJS} ${SOBJS} *.d depend upon ${DPSRCS}
* Deprecate the (short lived) DEPENDSRCS
Update the various Makefiles to these new semantics; generally either
adding to CLEANFILES (because DPSRCS doesn't do that anymore), or replacing
specific .o dependencies with DPSRCS entries.

and use it preferentially to a value in pt_uc, clearing it once on the new

after the stack switch opened a one-instruction race condition where an upcall

* In switch-away cases, write PT_SWITCHTO last (after PT_SWITCHTOUC), so
that pthread__resolve_locks() doesn't see an empty SWITCHTOUC value. This
also permits pthread__resolve_locks() to use the presence of PT_SWITCHTO
as a sign that the thread has done all of its necessary chain work.
* Make the return-point of pthread__switch global and visible, so that its
address can be compared to the PC of a thread, again as a sign that its
chain-work is done.

- Signal handlers now simply continue executing the current thread,
rather than trying to put themselves back on the queue that they came
from, which was rather fragile. As a result, all callers of
pthread__block() must be prepared to handle spurious wakeups.
- When a signal arrives for a thread that is blocked in the kernel,
note this in another field in pthread_st and set a flag. Process the
signal and set up the trampoline for the handler *after* the thread
unblocks, so that both the trampoline and the returned state from
the kernel are preserved.
- Factor out some code into a pthread__deliver_signal() routine;
the signal-taking code in pthread_sigmask() should be able to use this
soon.
This is still gross, and there are still some terrible MP issues lurking here,
but progress crawls along.
