Introduce a separate test module to validate functionality in controlled
scenarios, such as stack canary writes and simulated corruption.

The module provides a proc interface (/proc/kstackwatch_test) that allows
triggering specific test cases via simple commands:

 - test0: directly corrupt the canary to verify watch/fire behavior

Test module is built with optimizations disabled to ensure predictable
behavior.
