This commit adds preparatory support for forthcoming message
queue implementation to the Minix kernel. The core implementation
will be added with the next commit.
The current value was both wrong (counting spawned kernel signals
rather than delivered user signals) and returned for the calling
process even if the request was for the process's children.
For now we are better off not populating this field at all.

The filtering also exposed the risk that a process be killed or
swapped while on the list of VM memory requests. These cases are
now handled properly as well.

The entire infrastructure relied on an ACK feature, and as such, it
has been broken for years now, with no easy way to repair it.
