Because check_process_code neglected checking the HiPE stack for
references to the literal area, such references would survive the purge
and subsequent deletion of a module and its literal area. These dangling
references would then cause incorrect behaviour or even hard crashes of
the VM.
By simply adding a scan of the HiPE stack to check_process_code and
erts_garbage_collect_literals, this problem is fixed.
In order to support full stack walks without deleting the graylimit
trap, a new stack walking interface function,
nstack_walk_init_sdesc_ignore_trap() was introduced.
