BACKPORT: signal: support CLONE_PIDFD with pidfd_send_signal
Let pidfd_send_signal() use pidfds retrieved via CLONE_PIDFD. With this
patch pidfd_send_signal() becomes independent of procfs. This fullfils
the request made when we merged the pidfd_send_signal() patchset. The
pidfd_send_signal() syscall is now always available allowing for it to
be used by users without procfs mounted or even users without procfs
support compiled into the kernel.
