lktdm: add support for hardlockup, softlockup and hung task crashes
This adds three new types of kernel "crashes" in the lkdtm driver to trigger hardlockups, softlockups and task hung states at will. The first two are useful to test the new generic lockup detector and check its further regressions. The latter one is a bonus to check the hung task detector regressions even though it's not currently in rework.
