debugobjects: avoid recursive calls with kmemleak



CONFIG_DEBUG_OBJECTS_RCU_HEAD does not play well with kmemleak due to
recursive calls.

fill_pool
  kmemleak_ignore
    make_black_object
      put_object
        __call_rcu (kernel/rcu/tree.c)
          debug_rcu_head_queue
            debug_object_activate
              debug_object_init
                fill_pool
                  kmemleak_ignore
                    make_black_object
                      ...

So add SLAB_NOLEAKTRACE to kmem_cache_create() to not register newly
allocated debug objects at all.
