Threads currently have 2-4 MiB stacks by default (depending on the
platform). This is fine on MMU platforms, where this stack space is not
actually allocated until it is used, but tends to waste a large amount
of memory on no-MMU platforms.
This patch adds a PTHREADS_STACK_DEFAULT_SIZE Kconfig option that allows
the user to override the default stack size at build time. This allows
the user to select a reasonable default stack size for the software that
runs on their system, and avoids the need to patch every package to add
calls to pthread_attr_setstacksize().
An alternative to this patch would be to change the hardcoded default
stack size on no-MMU platforms, but it is difficult to choose an
appropriate value because the minimum required stack depends on the
software in use. This would also be a breaking change.

Follow GNU C Library from c579f48edba88380635ab98cb612030e3ed8691e
and remove the PID caching. These simplifies the architecture specific
assembly code.
The run of the test suite found no regressions, it even solves
some of the test failures for x86/x86_64/sparc.

Not perfect, but a starting point.
Some tests of the test suite are failing.
