new helper: get_signal() On success get_signal_to_deliver() fills k_sigaction and siginfo. _All_ users pass it addresses of the local variables sitting in the same function. Then they proceed to pass those addresses pretty much in tandem to a bunch of helper functions; again, all callers of those helpers are passing them such a pair, and one that had been through get_signal_to_deliver() at that. The obvious cleanup: introduce a new type that would contain a <k_sigaction,siginfo> pair (struct ksignal) and begin switching to using it. Turns out that it's convenient to store the signal number in the same object. New helper, taking that sucker is a wrapper for get_signal_to_deliver(); takes struct ksignal * and returns bool. On success fills ksignal with the information for signal handler to be invoked. For now it's a macro (to avoid header ordering headache), but eventually it'll be a function in kernel/signal.c, with get_signal_to_deliver() folded into it.
