MIPS: Save MSA extended context around signals

Browse source

It is desirable for signal handlers to be allowed to make use of MSA,
particularly if auto vectorisation is used when compiling a program.
The MSA context must therefore be saved & restored before & after
invoking the signal handler. Make use of the extended context structs
defined in the preceding patch to save MSA context after the sigframe
when appropriate.
