lib: turn CONFIG_STACKTRACE into an actual option.

[Dave Jones]

I was puzzled why /proc/$$/stack had disappeared, until I figured out
I had disabled the last debug option that did a 'select STACKTRACE'.
This patch makes the option show up at config time, so it can be
enabled without enabling any of the more heavyweight debug options.
