stacktrace: add saved stack traces to backtrace self-test 



This patch adds saved stack-traces to the backtrace suite of self-tests.

Note that we don't depend on or unconditionally enable CONFIG_STACKTRACE
because not all architectures may have it (and we still want to enable the
other tests for those architectures).

	  have to enable STACKTRACE as well.



	  Say N if you are unsure.
