tuna: fix the check of PF_NO_SETAFFINITY flag for threads

Tuna checks if PF_NO_SETAFFINITY is set on /proc/PID/stat's 'flag' field
to verify if it is possible to migrate a process/thread.  This is
working fine for process, but not for threads.

For threads, the file /proc/TID/stat is being checked, but this file
does not exist as the stat file of a thread is at
/proc/PID/task/TID/stat.  Hence, the check was failing and threads were
not being migrated.

This patch adds a function to check thread's stat file, and this
function is called to verify the PF_NO_SETAFFINITY flag for threads.

Committer note:

Before, doing:

  # tuna --cpu 3 --isolate
  # tuna -t firefox -CP
                      thread       ctxt_switches
      pid SCHED_ rtpri affinity voluntary nonvoluntary             cmd
   14838   OTHER     0    0,1,2    873954        27498         firefox
    14857  OTHER     0  0,1,2,3         3            1  Gecko_IOThread
    14858  OTHER     0  0,1,2,3         1            0    Link Monitor
    14859  OTHER     0  0,1,2,3    126717        12214   Socket Thread
  <SNIP>

So it affected just the main thread, all the children remained with
their existing affinity mask.

After the patch:

  # tuna --cpu 3 --isolate
  # tuna -t firefox -CP
                        thread       ctxt_switches
      pid SCHED_ rtpri affinity voluntary nonvoluntary             cmd
   14838   OTHER     0    0,1,2    877488        27583         firefox
    14857  OTHER     0    0,1,2         3            1  Gecko_IOThread
    14858  OTHER     0    0,1,2         1            0    Link Monitor
    14859  OTHER     0    0,1,2    126933        12235   Socket Thread
