coredump: turn mm->core_startup_done into the pointer to struct core_state
mm->core_startup_done points to "struct completion startup_done" allocated on the coredump_wait()'s stack. Introduce the new structure, core_state, which holds this "struct completion". This way we can add more info visible to the threads participating in coredump without enlarging mm_struct. No changes in affected .o files.
