ptrace: add ability to get/set signal-blocked mask

crtools uses a parasite code for dumping processes. The parasite code is injected into a process with help PTRACE_SEIZE. Currently crtools blocks signals from a parasite code. If a process has pending signals, crtools wait while a process handles these signals. This method is not suitable for stopped tasks. A stopped task can have a few pending signals, when we will try to execute a parasite code, we will need to drop SIGSTOP, but all other signals must remain pending, because a state of processes must not be changed during checkpointing. This patch adds two ptrace commands to set/get signal-blocked mask. I think gdb can use this commands too.
