89666a8e1c Increase default user space stack size
Under RHEL6/CentOS6 the default stack size must be increased to 32K
to prevent overflowing the stack when running ztest.  This isn't an
issue for other distributions due to either the version of pthreads
or perhaps the compiler.  Doubling the stack size resolves the
issue safely for all distribution and leaves us some headroom.

$ sudo -E ztest -V -T 300 -f /var/tmp/

aa0ac7caa4 Make user stack limit configurable
To aid in detecting and debugging stack overflow issues make the
user space stack limit configurable via a new ZFS_STACK_SIZE
environment variable.  The value assigned to ZFS_STACK_SIZE will
be used as the default stack size in bytes.

Because this is mainly useful as a debugging aid in conjunction
with ztest the stack limit is disabled by default.  See the ztest(1)
man page for additional details on using the ZFS_STACK_SIZE
environment variable.
