rseq: Add prctl() to enable time slice extensions

Implement a prctl() so that tasks can enable the time slice extension
mechanism. This fails, when time slice extensions are disabled at compile
time or on the kernel command line and when no rseq pointer is registered
in the kernel.

That allows to implement a single trivial check in the exit to user mode
hotpath, to decide whether the whole mechanism needs to be invoked.
