procfs: provide stack information for threads
A patch to give a better overview of the userland application stack usage,
especially for embedded linux.

Currently you are only able to dump the main process/thread stack usage
which is showed in /proc/pid/status by the "VmStk" Value.  But you get no
information about the consumed stack memory of the the threads.

There is an enhancement in the /proc/<pid>/{task/*,}/*maps and which marks
the vm mapping where the thread stack pointer reside with "[thread stack
xxxxxxxx]".  xxxxxxxx is the maximum size of stack.  This is a value
information, because libpthread doesn't set the start of the stack to the
top of the mapped area, depending of the pthread usage.

A sample output of /proc/<pid>/task/<tid>/maps looks like:

Also there is a new entry "stack usage" in /proc/<pid>/{task/*,}/status
which will you give the current stack usage in kb.

A sample output of /proc/self/status looks like:

Name:	cat
State:	R (running)
Tgid:	507
Pid:	507
.
.
.
CapBnd:	fffffffffffffeff
voluntary_ctxt_switches:	0
nonvoluntary_ctxt_switches:	0
Stack usage:	12 kB

I also fixed stack base address in /proc/<pid>/{task/*,}/stat to the base
address of the associated thread stack and not the one of the main
process.  This makes more sense.
