Isolate some explicit usage of task->tgid
With pid namespaces this field is now dangerous to use explicitly, so hide
it behind the helpers.

Also the pid and pgrp fields o task_struct and signal_struct are to be
deprecated.  Unfortunately this patch cannot be sent right now as this
leads to tons of warnings, so start isolating them, and deprecate later.

Actually the p->tgid == pid has to be changed to has_group_leader_pid(),
but Oleg pointed out that in case of posix cpu timers this is the same, and
thread_group_leader() is more preferable.
