Merge #566

566: Add WaitStatus::PtraceSyscall for use with PTRACE_O_TRACESYSGOOD r=asomers

The recommended way to trace syscalls with ptrace is to set the
PTRACE_O_TRACESYSGOOD option, to distinguish syscall stops from
receiving an actual SIGTRAP. In C, this would cause WSTOPSIG to return
SIGTRAP | 0x80, but nix wants to parse that as an actual signal.

Add another wait status type for syscall stops (in the language of the
ptrace(2) manpage, "PTRACE_EVENT stops" and "Syscall-stops" are
different things), and mask out bit 0x80 from signals before trying to
parse it.

Closes #550
