chromatic confirmed on IRC that this was his preference, saying also
that this arrangement "solves another problem we'll run into eventually
[...] Knowing which thunks we need for a core even if we disable NCI in
general."

It's possible that a couple of the sigs in misc.in should be in core.in
or vice-versa, but I tried my best to get them straightened out using
the limited comments.  (Any remaining missorted sigs can be straightened
out in a separate RT ticket when we actually create an "NCI disabled"
build; I gather that will be some time down the line.)

After this patch is applied 53406 will have to be regenerated, but that
was planned anyway because chromatic asked for 53406 to be rewritten
using BigInt functionality.

In any case, this version of the patch should be acceptable to chromatic
and do no harm to the build; please apply.
