Rich Felker 25340a9337 add sysconf keys/values for signal stack size
as a result of ISA extensions exploding register file sizes on some
archs, using a constant for minimum signal stack size no longer seems
viably future-proof. add sysconf keys allowing the kernel to provide a
machine-dependent minimum applications can query to ensure they
allocate sufficient space for stacks. the key names and indices align
with the same functionality in glibc.

see commit d5a5045382 for previous
action on this subject.

ultimately, the macros MINSIGSTKSZ and SIGSTKSZ probably need to be
deprecated, but that is standards-amendment work outside the scope of
a single implementation.

    musl libc

musl, pronounced like the word "mussel", is an MIT-licensed
implementation of the standard C library targetting the Linux syscall
API, suitable for use in a wide range of deployment environments. musl
offers efficient static and dynamic linking support, lightweight code
and low runtime overhead, strong fail-safe guarantees under correct
usage, and correctness in the sense of standards conformance and
safety. musl is built on the principle that these goals are best
achieved through simple code that is easy to understand and maintain.

The 1.1 release series for musl features coverage for all interfaces
defined in ISO C99 and POSIX 2008 base, along with a number of
non-standardized interfaces for compatibility with Linux, BSD, and
glibc functionality.

For basic installation instructions, see the included INSTALL file.
Information on full musl-targeted compiler toolchains, system
bootstrapping, and Linux distributions built on musl can be found on
the project website:
