.extern tcs_base .extern g_in_aex_profiling
tcs_base and g_in_aex_profiling don't exist (some historic artifacts). Removed them, though they are unrelated to this PR.

Here and everywhere: the correct spelling is AEX-Notify, with a dash. Change.
Previously, the AEX handler only called C code (more specific to our use case, the code that works on the untrusted-thread stack) for SGX profiling logic and only when Gramine was built in debug mode. As a preparation for AEX-Notify support, this commit modifies the AEX handler such that it can call C code when Gramine is built in release mode. Also, the AEX handler logic is not restricted to SGX profiling only, so the `_PROF`/`_prof` suffixes in related function and variable names are removed. This commit also adds two small prerequisites for AEX-Notify: (1) `eenter_pointer` helper so that signal handling logic can learn whether an exception happened at EENTER instruction, and (2) dummy function `maybe_raise_pending_signal` that will be populated in a later commit.

Part 1 in AEX-Notify series.
Previously, the AEX handler only called C code (more specific to our use case, the code that works on the untrusted-thread stack) for SGX profiling logic and only when Gramine was built in debug mode.
As a preparation for AEX-Notify support, this commit modifies the AEX handler such that it can call C code when Gramine is built in release mode. Also, the AEX handler logic is not restricted to SGX profiling only, so the
_PROF/_profsuffixes in related function and variable names are removed.This commit also adds two small prerequisites for AEX-Notify: (1)
