cgroup: add cgroup.stat interface with basic hierarchy stats
A cgroup can consume resources even after being deleted by a user.
For example, writing back dirty pages should be accounted and
limited, despite the corresponding cgroup might contain no processes
and being deleted by a user.
In the current implementation a cgroup can remain in such "dying" state
for an undefined amount of time. For instance, if a memory cgroup
contains a pge, mlocked by a process belonging to an other cgroup.
Although the lifecycle of a dying cgroup is out of user's control,
it's important to have some insight of what's going on under the hood.
In particular, it's handy to have a counter which will allow
to detect css leaks.
To solve this problem, add a cgroup.stat interface to
the base cgroup control files with the following metrics:
nr_descendants total number of visible descendant cgroups
nr_dying_descendants total number of dying descendant cgroups
