Subject: [RFC PATCH v1] syscall_user_dispatch: ptrace SUSPEND feature for checkpoint/restore

Adds PTRACE_O_SUSPEND_SYSCALL_USER_DISPATCH to ptrace options, and
modify Syscall User Dispatch to suspend interception when enabled.

This is modeled after the similar feature for SECCOMP, which suspends
SECCOMP interposition.  Without doing this, software like CRIU will
inject system calls into a process and be intercepted by Syscall
User Dispatch, either causing a crash (due to blocked signals) or
the delivery of those signals to a ptracer (not the intended behavior).

Since Syscall User Dispatch is not a privileged feature, a check
for permissions like SECCOMP does is not required, however attemping
to set this feature should not be possible when
CONFIG_CHECKPOINT_RESTORE it not supported.
