seccomp: add SECCOMP_RET_ERRNO
This change adds the SECCOMP_RET_ERRNO as a valid return value from a seccomp filter. Additionally, it makes the first use of the lower 16-bits for storing a filter-supplied errno. 16-bits is more than enough for the errno-base.h calls. Returning errors instead of immediately terminating processes that violate seccomp policy allow for broader use of this functionality for kernel attack surface reduction. For example, a linux container could maintain a whitelist of pre-existing system calls but drop all new ones with errnos. This would keep a logically static attack surface while providing errnos that may allow for graceful failure without the downside of do_exit() on a bad call. This change also changes the signature of __secure_computing. It appears the only direct caller is the arm entry code and it clobbers any possible return value (register) immediately.
