Subject: lib/stackdepot.c: fix global out-of-bounds in stack_slabs

Walter Wu has reported a potential case in which init_stack_slab() is
called after stack_slabs[STACK_ALLOC_MAX_SLABS - 1] has already been
initialized.  In that case init_stack_slab() will overwrite
stack_slabs[STACK_ALLOC_MAX_SLABS], which may result in a memory
corruption.
