Linux: Add tables with system call numbers

The new tables are currently only used for consistency checks
with the installed kernel headers and the architecture-independent
system call names table.  They are based on Linux 5.4.

The goal is to use these architecture-specific tables to ensure
that system call wrappers are available irrespective of the version
of the installed kernel headers.

The tables are formatted in the form of C header files so that they
can be used directly in an #include directive, without external
preprocessing.  (External preprocessing of a plain table file
would introduce cross-subdirectory dependency issues.)  However,
the intent is that they can still be treated as tables and can be
processed by simple tools.

The irregular system call names on 32-bit arm add a complication.
The <fixup-asm-unistd.h> header is introduced to work around that,
and the system calls are listed under regular names in the
<arch-syscall.h> file.

A make target, update-syscalls-list, is added to patch the glibc
sources with data from the current kernel headers.
