we need a widget either in the systemtap runtime proper, or within
staprun/stapio, to tell a probe the memory layout of a given user process.  This
is basically the contents of /proc/$$/maps, and is necessary in order to place
kprobes, relocate unwind/symbol data, and probably other stuff too.  Some of it
needs to be available by probe initialization (uprobe placement) time.  It needs
to be kept reasonably up to date, and readable without taking sleepy locks (for
backtrace purposes).
