[PATCH 13/23 -v8] Make the task State char-string visible to all

[Steven Rostedt]

The tracer wants to be able to convert the state number
into a user visible character. This patch pulls that conversion
string out the scheduler into the header. This way if it were to
ever change, other parts of the kernel will know.
