cgroup: add pids.peak interface for pids controller
pids.peak tracks the high watermark of usage for number of pids. This helps give a better baseline on which to set pids.max. Polling pids.current isn't really feasible, since it would potentially miss short-lived spikes. This interface is analogous to memory.peak.
