softlockup: decouple hung tasks check from softlockup detection

Decoupling allows:

* hung tasks check to happen at very low priority

* hung tasks check and softlockup to be enabled/disabled independently
  at compile and/or run-time

* individual panic settings to be enabled disabled independently
  at compile and/or run-time

* softlockup threshold to be reduced without increasing hung tasks
  poll frequency (hung task check is expensive relative to softlock watchdog)

* hung task check to be zero over-head when disabled at run-time
