cgroup: cgroup.stat.local time accounting



There isn't yet a clear way to identify a set of "lost" time that
everyone (or at least a wider group of users) cares about. However,
users can perform some delay accounting by iterating over components of
interest. This patch allows cgroup v2 freezing time to be one of those
components.

Track the cumulative time that each v2 cgroup spends freezing and expose
it to userland via a new local stat file in cgroupfs. Thank you to
Michal, who provided the ASCII art in the updated documentation.

To access this value:
  $ mkdir /sys/fs/cgroup/test
  $ cat /sys/fs/cgroup/test/cgroup.stat.local
  freeze_time_total 0

Ensure consistent freeze time reads with freeze_seq, a per-cgroup
sequence counter. Writes are serialized using the css_set_lock.
