Linux: Make __rseq_size useful for feature detection (bug 31965)

The __rseq_size value is now the active area of struct rseq
(so 20 initially), not the full struct size including padding
at the end (32 initially).

Update misc/tst-rseq to print some additional diagnostics.

Previous versions of @theglibc{} set this to 32 even if the kernel only
supported the initial area of 20 bytes because the value included unused
padding at the end of the restartable sequence area.
