There is currently hard-coded logic spread around the tree for determining the note name for regset notes emitted in coredumps. Now that the names are declared explicitly in <uapi/elf.h>, this can be simplified. In preparation for getting rid of the special-case logic, add an explicit core_note_name field in struct user_regset for specifying the note name explicitly. To help avoid mistakes, a convenience macro USER_REGSET_NOTE_TYPE() is provided to set .core_note_type and .core_note_name based on the note type. When dumping core, use the new field to set the note name, if the regset specifies it.
