pidfd: allow to override signal scope in pidfd_send_signal()
Right now we determine the scope of the signal based on the type of
pidfd. There are use-cases where it's useful to override the scope of
the signal. For example in [1]. Add flags to determine the scope of the
signal:

(1) PIDFD_SIGNAL_THREAD: send signal to specific thread reference by @pidfd
(2) PIDFD_SIGNAL_THREAD_GROUP: send signal to thread-group of @pidfd
(2) PIDFD_SIGNAL_PROCESS_GROUP: send signal to process-group of @pidfd

Since we now allow specifying PIDFD_SEND_PROCESS_GROUP for
pidfd_send_signal() to send signals to process groups we need to adjust
the check restricting si_code emulation by userspace to account for
PIDTYPE_PGID.
