signal: Factor force_sig_perf out of perf_sigtrap
Separate filling in siginfo for TRAP_PERF from deciding that
siginal needs to be sent.
There are enough little details that need to be correct when
properly filling in siginfo_t that it is easy to make mistakes
if filling in the siginfo_t is in the same function with other
logic. So factor out force_sig_perf to reduce the cognative
load of on reviewers, maintainers and implementors.
