chs 939df36e55 add support for non-executable mappings (where the hardware allows this)
and make the stack and heap non-executable by default.  the changes
fall into two basic catagories:

 - pmap and trap-handler changes.  these are all MD:
   = alpha: we already track per-page execute permission with the (software)
	PG_EXEC bit, so just have the trap handler pay attention to it.
   = i386: use a new GDT segment for %cs for processes that have no
	executable mappings above a certain threshold (currently the
	bottom of the stack).  track per-page execute permission with
	the last unused PTE bit.
   = powerpc/ibm4xx: just use the hardware exec bit.
   = powerpc/oea: we already track per-page exec bits, but the hardware only
	implements non-exec mappings at the segment level.  so track the
	number of executable mappings in each segment and turn on the no-exec
	segment bit iff the count is 0.  adjust the trap handler to deal.
   = sparc (sun4m): fix our use of the hardware protection bits.
	fix the trap handler to recognize text faults.
   = sparc64: split the existing unified TSB into data and instruction TSBs,
	and only load TTEs into the appropriate TSB(s) for the permissions.
	fix the trap handler to check for execute permission.
   = not yet implemented: amd64, hppa, sh5

 - changes in all the emulations that put a signal trampoline on the stack.
   instead, we now put the trampoline into a uvm_aobj and map that into
   the process separately.
