[PATCH 10/15] stackdepot: store free stack records in a freelist

[andrey.konovalov@linux.dev]

From: Andrey Konovalov <andreyknvl@google.com>

Instead of using the global pool_offset variable to find a free slot
when storing a new stack record, mainlain a freelist of free slots
within the allocated stack pools.

A global next_stack variable is used as the head of the freelist, and
the next field in the stack_record struct is reused as freelist link
(when the record is not in the freelist, this field is used as a link
in the hash table).

This is preparatory patch for implementing the eviction of stack records
from the stack depot.
