Ville Juven c1ceec3404 sched/Kconfig: waitpid() depends on SCHED_HAVE_PARENT if BUILD_KERNEL
waitpid() cannot be used in kernel mode unless SCHED_HAVE_PARENT is
selected -> add dependency if BUILD_KERNEL is selected.

Why? Because without SCHED_HAVE_PARENT waitpid() works in a non-standard
way, meaning it does not use SIGCHLD to wake the parent, as it should.

Also, returning the child status via stat_loc corrupts memory as stat_loc
points to the parent's address environment:

pid_t nxsched_waitpid(pid_t pid, int *stat_loc, int options)
{
  ...
  group->tg_statloc = stat_loc;
  ...
}

And later when the status is returned, the child writes to tg_statloc,
which points to the parent's address environment -> random memory
corruption:

static inline void nxtask_exitwakeup(FAR struct tcb_s *tcb, int status)
{
  ...
  if (group->tg_statloc != NULL)
    {
      *group->tg_statloc = status << 8;
    }
  ...
}
