bpf: Implement task local storage
Similar to bpf_local_storage for sockets and inodes add local storage for task_struct. The life-cycle of storage is managed with the life-cycle of the task_struct. i.e. the storage is destroyed along with the owning task with a callback to the bpf_task_storage_free from the task_free LSM hook. The BPF LSM allocates an __rcu pointer to the bpf_local_storage in the security blob which are now stackable and can co-exist with other LSMs. The userspace map operations can be done by using a pid fd as a key passed to the lookup, update and delete operations.
