Add stack_save_td_running(), a function to trace the kernel stack of a
running thread.
It is currently implemented only on amd64 and i386; on these
architectures, it is implemented by raising an NMI on the CPU on which
the target thread is currently running. Unlike stack_save_td(), it may
fail, for example if the thread is running in user mode.
This change also modifies the kern.proc.kstack sysctl to use this function,
so that stacks of running threads are shown in the output of "procstat -kk".
This is handy for debugging threads that are stuck in a busy loop.

Remove the arg0 field from struct amd64_frame. Its existence was a bug,
since on amd64 the first argument to a function is generally not on the
stack.
Revert an old DTrace bug fix to some code that
Remove the arg0 field from struct amd64_frame. Its existence was a bug,
since on amd64 the first argument to a function is generally not on the
stack.
Revert an old DTrace bug fix to some code that assumed that
sizeof(struct amd64_frame) == 16.
