uml: simplify helper stack handling

Browse Source 
run_helper and run_helper_thread had arguments which were the same in all
callers.  run_helper's stack_out was always NULL and run_helper_thread's
stack_order was always 0.  These are now gone, and the constants folded
into the code.

Also fixed leaks of the helper stack in the AIO and SIGIO code.
