Since __attribute__((naked)) cannot be used with functions
containing C statements, just generate the few instructions
it needs in assembly directly.
While at it, fix the stack usage ("1 + 2*x - 1" is odd) and
document what it must do, and why it must adjust the stack.

The stub_exe could segfault when built with some compilers (e.g. gcc
13.2.0), as SSE instructions which relied on stack alignment could be
generated, but the stack was misaligned.
This seems to be due to the __start entry point being run with a 16-byte
aligned stack, but the x86_64 SYSV ABI wanting the stack to be so
aligned _before_ a function call (so it is misaligned when the function
is entered due to the return address being pushed). The function
prologue then realigns it. Because the entry point is never _called_,
and hence there is no return address, the prologue is therefore actually
misaligning it, and causing the generated movaps instructions to
SIGSEGV. This results in the following error:
start_userspace : expected SIGSTOP, got status = 139
Don't generate this prologue for __start by using
__attribute__((naked)), which resolves the issue.

Enable PR_SET_PDEATHSIG so that the UML userspace process will be killed
when the kernel exits unexpectedly.

Using clone will not undo features that have been enabled by libc. An
example of this already happening is rseq, which could cause the kernel
to read/write memory of the userspace process. In the future the
standard library might also use mseal by default to protect itself,
which would also thwart our attempts at unmapping everything.
Solve all this by taking a step back and doing an execve into a tiny
static binary that sets up the minimal environment required for the
stub without using any standard library. That way we have a clean
execution environment that is fully under the control of UML.
Note that this changes things a bit as the FDs are not anymore shared
with the kernel. Instead, we explicitly share the FDs for the physical
memory and all existing iomem regions. Doing this is fine, as iomem
regions cannot be added at runtime.
