[PATCH] test: Clean up stack_fbt test

eugene.loh
2025-10-16T20:56:48Z

From: Eugene Loh <eugene.loh@oracle.com>

The idea behind the test is to check the stack() output for some fbt
probe for specific expected frames. An attempt was made to specify the
exact stack that was expected, but there are too many variations among
kernel versions and so maintaining the test was difficult. Loosen the
test to check for only a few expected frames.

The test was also checking that stack()'s first 3 frames matched
stack(3), but such a test is already provided by, for example,
test/unittest/printf/tst.stack.d
test/unittest/stack/tst.stack.d
So, drop the stack(3) stuff.
