Subject: arch: remove ARCH_THREAD_STACK_ALLOCATOR

Patch series "Remove unused code after IA-64 removal".
While looking into something different I noticed that there are a couple
of Kconfig options which were only selected by IA-64 and which are now
unused.
So remove them and simplify the code a bit.
This patch (of 3):
IA-64 was the only architecture which selected ARCH_THREAD_STACK_ALLOCATOR.
IA-64 was removed with commit cf8e8658100d ("arch: Remove Itanium (IA-64)
architecture"). Therefore remove support for ARCH_THREAD_STACK_ALLOCATOR as
well.
