workqueue: Add stall detector sample module

Add a sample module under samples/workqueue/stall_detector/ that
reproduces a workqueue stall caused by PF_WQ_WORKER misuse. The
module queues two work items on the same per-CPU pool, then clears
PF_WQ_WORKER and sleeps in wait_event_idle(), hiding from the
concurrency manager and stalling the second work item indefinitely.

This is useful for testing the workqueue watchdog stall diagnostics.
