coredump: ensure all coredumping tasks have SIGNAL_GROUP_COREDUMP
task_will_free_mem() is wrong in many ways, and in particular the
SIGNAL_GROUP_COREDUMP check is not reliable: a task can participate in the
coredumping without SIGNAL_GROUP_COREDUMP bit set.
change zap_threads() paths to always set SIGNAL_GROUP_COREDUMP even if
other CLONE_VM processes can't react to SIGKILL. Fortunately, at least
oom-kill case if fine; it kills all tasks sharing the same mm, so it
should also kill the process which actually dumps the core.
The change in prepare_signal() is not strictly necessary, it just ensures
that the patch does not bring another subtle behavioural change. But it
reminds us that this SIGNAL_GROUP_EXIT/COREDUMP case needs more changes.
