any threads are created turned out to be not such a good idea.
there are stronger requirements on what has to work in a forked child
while a process is still single-threaded. so take all that stuff
back out and fix the problems with single-threaded programs that
are linked with libpthread differently, by checking if the library
has been started and doing completely different stuff if it hasn't been:
- for pthread_rwlock_timedrdlock(), just fail with EDEADLK immediately.
- for sem_wait(), the only thing that can unlock the semaphore is a
signal handler, so use sigsuspend() to wait for a signal.
- for pthread_mutex_lock_slow(), just go into an infinite loop
waiting for signals.
I also noticed that there's a "sem2" test that has never worked in its
single-threaded form. the problem there is that a signal handler tries
to take a sem_t interlock which is already held when the signal is received.
fix this too, by adding a single-threaded case for sig_trywait() that
blocks signals instead of using the userland interlock.
call pthread__start() if it hasn't already been called. this avoids
an internal assertion from the library if these routines are used
before any threads are created and they need to sleep.

- add idle VP wakeup if there are additional jobs and idle VPs
- make reidlequeue per VP
- enable spinning for locks
- fix race condition in alarm processing
- fix race condition in mutex locking
- make debugging output line buffered and add VP prefix to debug lines
- add pt_stackinfo to struct __pthread_st
- add pthread__stackinfo_offset returning the offset from ss_sp to
pt_stackinfo

make the kernel use it
- call pthread__sa_recycle in pthread__resolve_locks; g/c recycleq and
pthread__recycle_bulk
- return stack in pthread__sa_recycle by incrementing sasi_stackgen
- make pthread__sa_recycle debugging output formatting conditional on
pthread__debug_newline

condition in pt_uc management near the STACK_SWITCH part of pthread__switch()

Remove pt_sleepuc pointer, which was made obsolete by the previous round of
UC juggling but still present in the assembler files.
1. add new pthread__abort() and change pthread_assert(0) to it.
2. put constcond in the right place (in the macro).
3. no space after pthread__assert macro.

are "ignore", "abort", and "print". The default is currently "abort".

over a sleep queue and puts everything on the run queue. This permits
the iteration to be inside the acquisition of the run queue spinlock,
avoiding repetitive acquire/release cycles.
- 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.
