Kernel: Add dedicated "ptrace" pledge promise

Browse source 
The vast majority of programs don't ever need to use sys$ptrace(),
and it seems like a high-value system call to prevent a compromised
process from using.

This patch moves sys$ptrace() from the "proc" promise to its own,
new "ptrace" promise and updates the affected apps.
