Subject: [PATCH 1/2] signals: introduce do_send_sig_info() helper
Introduce do_send_sig_info() and convert group_send_sig_info(),
send_sig_info(), do_send_specific() to use this helper.
Hopefully it will have more users soon, it allows to specify
specific/group behaviour via "bool group" argument.
Shaves 80 bytes from .text.
