Implement ptrace getter/setter interface for syscall user dispatch.
These prctl settings are presently write-only, making it impossible to
implement transparent checkpoint via software like CRIU.
This is modeled after a similar interface for SECCOMP, which can have
its configuration dumped by ptrace.
