[PATCH 20/35] arm64/gcs: Allocate a new GCS for threads with GCS enabled

We do not currently have a mechanism to specify a new GCS for a new
thread so when a thread is created which has GCS enabled allocate one
for it. Since there is no current API for specifying the size of the
GCS we follow the extensively discussed x86 implementation and allocate
min(RLIMIT_STACK, 4G). Since the GCS only stores the call stack and not
any variables this should be more than sufficient for most applications.
When allocating the stack we initialise GCSPR_EL0 to point to one entry
below the end of the region allocated, this keeps the top entry of the
stack 0 so software walking the GCS can easily detect the end of the
region.
