Oleg Nesterov 64bef697d3 pidfd: implement PIDFD_THREAD flag for pidfd_open()
With this flag:

	- pidfd_open() doesn't require that the target task must be
	  a thread-group leader

	- pidfd_poll() succeeds when the task exits and becomes a
	  zombie (iow, passes exit_notify()), even if it is a leader
	  and thread-group is not empty.

	  This means that the behaviour of pidfd_poll(PIDFD_THREAD,
	  pid-of-group-leader) is not well defined if it races with
	  exec() from its sub-thread; pidfd_poll() can succeed or not
	  depending on whether pidfd_task_exited() is called before
	  or after exchange_tids().

	  Perhaps we can improve this behaviour later, pidfd_poll()
	  can probably take sig->group_exec_task into account. But
	  this doesn't really differ from the case when the leader
	  exits before other threads (so pidfd_poll() succeeds) and
	  then another thread execs and pidfd_poll() will block again.

thread_group_exited() is no longer used, perhaps it can die.
