[RFC PATCH 06/10] hurd: Make sure to not use tcb->self

[Sergey Bugaev <bugaevc@gmail.com>]

Unlike sigstate->thread, tcb->self did not hold a Mach port reference on
the thread port it names. This means that the port can be deallocated,
and the name reused for something else, without anyone noticing. Using
tcb->self will then lead to port use-after-free.

Fortunately nothing was accessing tcb->self, other than it being
intially set to then-valid thread port name upon TCB initialization. To
assert that this keeps being the case without altering TCB layout,
rename self -> self_do_not_use, and stop initializing it.

Also, do not (re-)allocate a whole separate and unused stack for the
main thread, and just exit __pthread_setup early in this case.

Found upon attempting to use tcb->self and getting unexpected crashes.
