Simplify the code that allows SIGKILL during coredumps to terminate
the coredump.  As far as I can tell I have avoided breaking it
by dumb luck.

Historically with all of the other threads stopping in exit_mm the
wants_signal loop in complete_signal would find the dumper task and
then complete_signal would wake the dumper task with signal_wake_up.

After moving the coredump_task_exit above the setting of PF_EXITING in
commit 92307383082d ("coredump: Don't perform any cleanups before
dumping core") wants_signal will consider all of the threads in a
multi-threaded process for waking up, not just the core dumping task.

Luckily complete_signal short circuits SIGKILL during a coredump marks
every thread with SIGKILL and signal_wake_up.  This code is arguably
buggy however as it tries to skip creating a group exit when is already
present, and it fails that a coredump is in progress.

Ever since commit 06af8679449d ("coredump: Limit what can interrupt
coredumps") was added dump_interrupted needs not just TIF_SIGPENDING
set on the dumper task but also SIGKILL set in it's pending bitmap.
This means that if the code is ever fixed not to short-circuit and
kill a process after it has already been killed the special case
for SIGKILL during a coredump will be broken.

Sort all of this out by making the coredump special case more special,
and perform all of the work in prepare_signal and leave the rest of
the signal delivery path out of it.

In prepare_signal when the process coredumping is sent SIGKILL find
the task performing the coredump and use sigaddset and signal_wake_up
to ensure that task reports fatal_signal_pending.

Return false from prepare_signal to tell the rest of the signal
delivery path to ignore the signal.

Update wait_for_dump_helpers to perform a wait_event_killable wait
so that if signal_pending gets set spuriously the wait will not
be interrupted unless fatal_signal_pending is true.

I have tested this and verified I did not break SIGKILL during
coredumps by accident (before or after this change).  I actually
thought I had and I had to figure out what I had misread that kept
SIGKILL during coredumps working.
