Subject: [PATCH RFC 1/2] stackdepot: add stats counters exported via debugfs

Add a few basic stats counters for stack depot that can be used to derive if
stack depot is working as intended. This is a snapshot of the new stats after
booting a system with a KASAN-enabled kernel:

 $ cat /sys/kernel/debug/stackdepot/stats
 pools: 838
 allocations: 29861
 frees: 6561
 in_use: 23300
 freelist_size: 1840

Generally, "pools" should be well below the max; once the system is booted,
"in_use" should remain relatively steady.
