x86/shstk: Add user-mode shadow stack support
Introduce basic shadow stack enabling/disabling/allocation routines. A task's shadow stack is allocated from memory with VM_SHADOW_STACK flag and has a fixed size of min(RLIMIT_STACK, 4GB). Keep the task's shadow stack address and size in thread_struct. This will be copied when cloning new threads, but needs to be cleared during exec, so add a function to do this. 32 bit shadow stack is not expected to have many users and it will complicate the signal implementation. So do not support IA32 emulation or x32.
