Subject[RFC PATCH 3/X] ptrace: introduce the empty "struct ptrace_task"
Suggested by Roland.

Introduce the new "struct ptrace_task" and add the pointer to task_struct.
The next patches will move all ptrace-related fields from task_struct into
this struct. From now, if the task was ever ptraced it has ->ptrace_task
!= NULL. Freed by free_task() along with task_struct itself.

With utrace based ptrace we can move this struct into utrace_engine->data.
