Now that there are services other than PM and VFS that implement
userland system calls directly, these services may need to know about
events related to user processes. In particular, signal delivery may
have to interrupt blocking system calls, and certain cleanup tasks may
have to be performed after a user process exits.
This patch aims to implement a generic, lasting solution for this
problem, by allowing services to subscribe to "signal delivered"
and/or "process exit" events from PM. PM publishes such events by
sending messages to its subscribed services, which must then reply an
acknowledgment message.
For now, only the two aforementioned events are implemented, and only
the IPC service makes use of the process event facility.
The new process event publish/subscribe system replaces the previous
VM notify-sig/watch-exit/query-exit system, which was unsound: 1) it
allowed subscription to events from individual processes, and suffered
from fundamental race conditions as a result; 2) it relied on "not too
many" processes making use of the IPC server functionality in order to
avoid loss of notifications. In addition, it had the "ipc" process
name hardcoded, did not distinguish between signal delivery and exits,
and added a roundtrip to VM for all events from all processes.

This patch adds support for the wait4 system call, and with that the
wait3 call as well. The implementation is absolutely minimal: only
user and system times of the exited child are returned (with all other
rusage fields left zero), and there is no support for tracers. Still,
this should cover the main use cases of wait4.
