um: mark rodata read-only and implement _nofault accesses
Mark read-only data actually read-only (simple mprotect), and
to be able to test it also implement _nofault accesses. This
works by setting up a new "segv_continue" pointer in current,
and then when we hit a segfault we change the signal return
context so that we continue at that address. The code using
this sets it up so that it jumps to a label and then aborts
the access that way, returning -EFAULT.
It's possible to optimize the ___backtrack_faulted() thing by
using asm goto (compiler version dependent) and/or gcc's (not
sure if clang has it) &&label extension, but at least in one
attempt I made the && caused the compiler to not load -EFAULT
into the register in case of jumping to the &&label from the
fault handler. So leave it like this for now.
