cgroup: implement hierarchy limits

Creating cgroup hierearchies of unreasonable size can affect
overall system performance. A user might want to limit the
size of cgroup hierarchy. This is especially important if a user
is delegating some cgroup sub-tree.

To address this issue, introduce an ability to control
the size of cgroup hierarchy.

The cgroup.max.descendants control file allows to set the maximum
allowed number of descendant cgroups.
The cgroup.max.depth file controls the maximum depth of the cgroup
tree. Both are single value r/w files, with "max" default value.

The control files exist on each hierarchy level (including root).
When a new cgroup is created, we check the total descendants
and depth limits on each level, and if none of them are exceeded,
a new cgroup is created.

Only alive cgroups are counted, removed (dying) cgroups are
ignored.

cgroup.max.descendants
A read-write single value files. The default is "max".
Maximum allowed number of descent cgroups.
If the actual number of descendants is equal or larger,
an attempt to create a new cgroup in the hierarchy will fail.
cgroup.max.depth
A read-write single value files. The default is "max".
Maximum allowed descent depth below the current cgroup.
If the actual descent depth is equal or larger,
an attempt to create a new child cgroup will fail.
