Stanislav Kinsbursky 03f5956680 ipc: add sysctl to specify desired next object id
Add 3 new variables and sysctls to tune them (by one "next_id" variable
for messages, semaphores and shared memory respectively).  This variable
can be used to set desired id for next allocated IPC object.  By default
it's equal to -1 and old behaviour is preserved.  If this variable is
non-negative, then desired idr will be extracted from it and used as a
start value to search for free IDR slot.

Notes:

1) this patch doesn't guarantee that the new object will have desired
   id.  So it's up to user space how to handle new object with wrong id.

2) After a sucessful id allocation attempt, "next_id" will be set back
   to -1 (if it was non-negative).
