pidfs: prepare to drop exit_info pointer 

There will likely be more info that we need to store in struct
pidfs_attr. We need to make sure that some of the information such as
exit info or coredump info that consists of multiple bits is either
available completely or not at all, but never partially. Currently we
use a pointer that we assign to. That doesn't scale. We can't waste a
pointer for each mulit-part information struct we want to expose. Use a
bitmask instead.
