fbb31b4519 Kernel: Disable lock rank enforcement by default for now
There are a few violations with signal handling that I won't be able to
fix it until later this week. So lets put lock rank enforcement under a
debug option for now so other folks don't hit these crashes until rank
enforcement is more fleshed out.

066b0590ec Kernel/Locking: Add lock rank tracking per thread to find deadlocks
This change adds a static lock hierarchy / ranking to the Kernel with
the goal of reducing / finding deadlocks when running with SMP enabled.

We have seen quite a few lock ordering deadlocks (locks taken in a
different order, on two different code paths). As we properly annotate
locks in the system, then these facilities will find these locking
protocol violations automatically

The `LockRank` enum documents the various locks in the system and their
rank. The implementation guarantees that a thread holding one or more
locks of a lower rank cannot acquire an additional lock with rank that
is greater or equal to any of the currently held locks.
