Subject: [PATCH v3 1/3] ptrace: pass type of a syscall-stop in
 ptrace_message

Define two constants, PTRACE_EVENTMSG_SYSCALL_ENTRY and
PTRACE_EVENTMSG_SYSCALL_EXIT, and place them in ptrace_message
for the duration of syscall-stops.
This way ptracers can distinguish syscall-enter-stops
from syscall-exit-stops using PTRACE_GETEVENTMSG request.
