In a recent fixup i386 code was copied raw to x86_64 subarch to make it
compile again.
Here there are some little fixups and resyncs needed for it (mainly for
cleanliness sake) - I did an audit and found the rest of the code to be safe.

This gives a name to the anonymous union introduced in skas-hold-own-ldt,
allowing to build on a wider range of gccs.
It also removes ldt.h, which somehow became real, and replaces it with a
symlink, and creates ldt-x86_64.h as a copy of ldt-i386.h for now.

Patch imlements full LDT handling in SKAS:
* UML holds it's own LDT table, used to deliver data on
modify_ldt(READ)
* UML disables the default_ldt, inherited from the host (SKAS3)
or resets LDT entries, set by host's clib and inherited in
SKAS0
* A new global variable skas_needs_stub is inserted, that
can be used to decide, whether stub-pages must be supported
or not.
* Uses the syscall-stub to replace missing PTRACE_LDT (therefore,
write_ldt_entry needs to be modified)

*) Reorganize the two cases of sys_modify_ldt to share all the reasonably
common code.
*) Avoid memory allocation when unneeded (i.e. when we are writing and the
passed buffer size is known), thus not returning ENOMEM (which isn't
allowed for this syscall, even if there is no strict "specification").
*) Add copy_{from,to}_user to modify_ldt for TT mode.
