I'm fine with the name change. I think shstk got debated and picked
early in the history of the series before I got involved. "shstk" is
nice and short, but it's not completely clear what it is unless you
already know about shadow stack. So there is a tradeoff of clarity and
line length/wrapping. Does anyone else have any strong opinions?
