Playing with it some more I think I have everything working working
except for PTRACE_EVENT_SECCOMP (which can stay ptrace_event) and
group_exit(2).

Basically in exit sending yourself a signal and then calling do_exit
from the signal handler is not unreasonable, as exit is an ordinary
system call.

Ok, this is a bit odd, but I do like the concept of just making
ptrace_event just post a signal, and have all ptrace things always be
handled at signal time (or the special system call entry/exit, which
is fine too).

For purposes of discussion this is my current draft implementation.

I didn't check what is so different about exit_group() that you left
that as an exercise for the reader, but if that ends up then removing
the whole "wait synchromously for ptrace" cases for good I don't
_hate_ this. It's a bit odd, but it would be really nice to limit
where ptrace picks up data.

We do end up doing that stuff in "get_signal()", and that means that
we have the interaction with io_uring calling it directly, but it's at
least not a new thing.
