oom: consider multi-threaded tasks in task_will_free_mem

task_will_free_mem is a misnomer for a more complex PF_EXITING test for
early break out from the oom killer because it is believed that such a
task would release its memory shortly and so we do not have to select an
oom victim and perform a disruptive action.

Currently we make sure that the given task is not participating in the
core dumping because it might get blocked for a long time - see commit
d003f37 ("oom: don't assume that a coredumping thread will exit
soon").

The check can still do better though.  We shouldn't consider the task
unless the whole thread group is going down.  This is rather unlikely
but not impossible.  A single exiting thread would surely leave all the
address space behind.  If we are really unlucky it might get stuck on
the exit path and keep its TIF_MEMDIE and so block the oom killer.
