Before 4.20, kernel_siginfo_t was just called siginfo_t. This was
causing the kthread_dequeue_signal_3arg_task check, which uses
kernel_siginfo_t, to fail on older kernels.
In d6b8c17f1, we started checking for the "new" three-arg
dequeue_signal() by testing for the "old" version. Because that test is
explicitly using kernel_siginfo_t, it would fail, leading to the build
trying to use the new three-arg version, which would then not compile.
This commit fixes that by avoiding checking for the old 3-arg
dequeue_signal entirely. Instead, we check for the new one, as well as
the 4-arg form, and we use the old form as a fallback. This way, we
never have to test for it explicitly, and once we're building
HAVE_SIGINFO will make sure we get the right kernel_siginfo_t for it, so
everything works out nice.

See torvalds/linux@a2b80ce87a. It claims the task arg is always
`current`, and so it is with us, so this is a safe change to make. The
only spanner is that we also support the older pre-5.17 3-arg
dequeue_signal() which had different meaning, so we have to check the
types to get the right one.
