score: Remove _Stack_Adjust_size()
The increase of the stack size by CPU_STACK_ALIGNMENT in _Thread_Stack_Allocate() is disadvantageous. This may lead to a huge over allocation for specialized stack allocators. The CPU_STACK_ALIGNMENT is at most 16 on all current RTEMS CPU ports. The mimimum stack size ensured by _Stack_Ensure_minimum() must be considerable larger than this value, otherwise stack overflows will likely occur. Thus the _Stack_Adjust_size() is also superfluous.
