entry: Use different define for selector variable in SUD Michael Kerrisk suggested that, from an API perspective, it is a bad idea to share the PR_SYS_DISPATCH_ defines between the prctl operation and the selector variable. Therefore, define two new constants to be used by SUD's selector variable and update the corresponding documentation and test cases. While this changes the API syscall user dispatch has never been part of a Linux release, it will show up for the first time in 5.11.

ptrace: Provide set/get interface for syscall user dispatch The syscall user dispatch configuration can only be set by the task itself, but lacks a ptrace set/get interface which makes it impossible to implement checkpoint/restore for it. Add the required ptrace requests and the get/set functions in the syscall user dispatch code to make that possible.
