This set implements a kfunc called bpf_send_signal_remote() that is similar
to sigqueue() as it can send a signal along with a cookie to a thread or
thread group.

The send_signal selftest has been updated to also test this new kfunc under
all contexts.

Changes in v2:
v1: https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/20240724113944.75977-1-puranjay@kernel.org/
- Convert to a kfunc
- Add mechanism to send a cookie with the signal.

  bpf: implement bpf_send_signal_remote() kfunc
  selftests/bpf: Augment send_signal test with remote signaling
