Port to 2.1: Fix alternate stack cleanup on MUSL (#18687)
The MUSL implementation of sigaltstack checks that the ss.ss_size is larger or equal than the MINSIGSTKSZ even when the ss_flags is set to SS_DISABLE even though Linux man page for sigaltstack states that when this flag is set, all other ss fields are ignored. We were not setting the ss_size in this case and it was causing a memory leak for each thread that has terminated on MUSL based Linux distros like Alpine. Glibc implementation doesn't check the ss_size when the SS_DISABLE is set so the problem was really MUSL specific.
