Kernel: Allow preventing kmalloc and kfree

Browse source 
For "destructive" disallowance of allocations throughout the system,
Thread gains a member that controls whether allocations are currently
allowed or not. kmalloc checks this member on both allocations and
deallocations (with the exception of early boot) and panics the kernel
if allocations are disabled. This will allow for critical sections that
can't be allowed to allocate to fail-fast, making for easier debugging.

PS: My first proper Kernel commit :^)
