* Implemented basic decoding of new linux syscalls: preadv, pwritev,
rt_tgsigqueueinfo, perf_event_open.

with the same signal, so that strace can be used as a wrapper
process transparent to the invoking parent process.
When using -p option, the exit status of strace is zero unless
there was an unexpected error in doing the tracing.
