In preparation for migrating arm64 to the generic entry infrastructure,
decouple the decision to execute the syscall from the syscall number
itself. The ptrace and seccomp now returns a boolean flag rather than
overloading NO_SYSCALL (-1).

Changes:
- arm64_syscall_trace_enter() returns bool:
  - false: abort syscall execution
  - true: proceed, with syscall number reread from regs
- If we decide to execute the syscall, reread the syscall number
  and check if it is NO_SYSCALL again. Because when a tracer sets
  the syscall number to -1 and provides a custom return value in x0,
  this avoids calling invoke_syscall() which would overwrite the custom
  value with -ENOSYS by sys_ni_syscall().

Behavioral impact (unchanged):
- User-issued syscall(-1): unchanged, returns -ENOSYS.
- Tracer skip with custom x0: unchanged, returns custom x0
- Tracer skip without setting x0: unchanged, returns original
  argument (garbage)
- Normal syscalls and seccomp rejects: unaffected

No functional changes.
