A new helper function stack_map_calculate_max_depth() that
computes the max depth for a stackmap.

Changes in v2:
 - Removed the checking 'map_size % map_elem_size' from
   stack_map_calculate_max_depth
 - Changed stack_map_calculate_max_depth params name to be more generic

Changes in v3:
 - Changed map size param to size in max depth helper

Changes in v4:
 - Fixed indentation in max depth helper for args

Changes in v5:
 - Bound back trace_nr to num_elem in __bpf_get_stack
 - Make a copy of sysctl_perf_event_max_stack
   in stack_map_calculate_max_depth

Link to v4: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20250819162652.8776-1-contact@arnaud-lcm.com/
