Zi Li 1abf729e9d samples: extend hung_task detector test with semaphore support
Extend the existing hung_task detector test module to support multiple
lock types, including mutex and semaphore, with room for future additions
(e.g., spinlock, etc.).  This module creates dummy files under
<debugfs>/hung_task, such as 'mutex' and 'semaphore'.  The read process on
any of these files will sleep for enough long time (256 seconds) while
holding the respective lock.  As a result, the second process will wait on
the lock for a prolonged duration and be detected by the hung_task
detector.

This change unifies the previous mutex-only sample into a single,
extensible hung_task_tests module, reducing code duplication and improving
maintainability.

Usage is:

	> cd /sys/kernel/debug/hung_task
	> cat mutex & cat mutex          # Test mutex blocking
	> cat semaphore & cat semaphore  # Test semaphore blocking

Update the Kconfig description to reflect multiple debugfs files support.
