kernel/watchdog.c: convert {soft/hard}lockup boot parameters to sysctl aliases
After a recent change introduced by Vlastimil's series [0], kernel is
able now to handle sysctl parameters on kernel command line; also, the
series introduced a simple infrastructure to convert legacy boot
parameters (that duplicate sysctls) into sysctl aliases.

This patch converts the watchdog parameters softlockup_panic and
{hard,soft}lockup_all_cpu_backtrace to use the new alias infrastructure.
It fixes the documentation too, since the alias only accepts values 0 or
1, not the full range of integers.

We also took the opportunity here to improve the documentation of the
previously converted hung_task_panic (see the patch series [0]) and put
the alias table in alphabetical order.
