riscv: signal: validate altstack to reflect Vector

Browse source

Some extensions, such as Vector, dynamically change footprint on a
signal frame, so MINSIGSTKSZ is no longer accurate. For example, an
RV64V implementation with vlen = 512 may occupy 2K + 40 + 12 Bytes of a
signal frame with the upcoming support. And processes that do not
execute any vector instructions do not need to reserve the extra
sigframe. So we need a way to guard the allocation size of the sigframe
at process runtime according to current status of V.

Thus, provide the function sigaltstack_size_valid() to validate its size
based on current allocation status of supported extensions.
