main: print seccomp syscall details

When seccomp traps a SIGSYS, print the syscall number that caused it,
the current thread id and thread name to make violations easier to
debug.

This change requires that all threads are allowed to execute the
`gettid` and the `prctl` syscalls, thus the seccomp filters have also
been adjusted.
