Kernel: Fix kernel null deref on process crash during join_thread()

The join_thread() syscall is not supposed to be interruptible by
signals, but it was. And since the process death mechanism piggybacked
on signal interrupts, it was possible to interrupt a pthread_join() by
killing the process that was doing it, leading to confusing due to some
assumptions being made by Thread::finalize() for threads that have a
pending joiner.

This patch fixes the issue by making "interrupted by death" a distinct
block result separate from "interrupted by signal". Then we handle that
state in join_thread() and tidy things up so that thread finalization
doesn't get confused by the pending joiner being gone.

Test: Tests/Kernel/null-deref-crash-during-pthread_join.cpp
