CRIU and GDB need to get the current shadow stack and WRSS enablement
status. This information is already available via /proc/pid/status, but
this is inconvenient for CRIU because it involves parsing the text output
in an area of the code where this is difficult. Provide a status
arch_prctl(), ARCH_SHSTK_STATUS for retrieving the status. Have arg2 be a
userspace address, and make the new arch_prctl simply copy the features
out to userspace.
