We need to track permission on stack memory regions like we do
with other kernel objects. We want stacks to live in a memory
area that is outside the scope of memory domain permission
management. We need to be able track what stacks are in use,
and what stacks may be used by user threads trying to call
k_thread_create().
Some special handling is needed because thread stacks appear as
variously-sized arrays of struct _k_thread_stack_element which is
just a char. We need the entire array to be considered an object,
but also properly handle arrays of stacks.
Validation of stacks also requires that the bounds of the stack
are not exceeded. Various approaches were considered. Storing
the size in some header region of the stack itself would not allow
the stack to live in 'noinit'. Having a stack object be a data
structure that points to the stack buffer would confound our
current APIs for declaring stacks as arrays or struct members.
In the end, the struct _k_object was extended to store this size.
