Use thread local storage for thread index

This patch deprecates stack-based thread identification,
Also removes requirement that thread stacks are adjacent.

Finally, possibly annoying for some folks, it renames
all occurences of cpu_index and cpu_number with thread
index. Using word "cpu" is misleading here as thread can
be migrated ti different CPU, and also it is not related
to linux cpu index.
