Print stack backtraces in multiple columns, saving screen space.  Number of
columns is configurable and defaults to one so behavior is
backwards-compatible.

Also removes the brackets around addresses when printing more
that one entry per line so they print as:
    <address>
instead of:
    [<address>]
This helps multiple entries fit better on one line.

Original idea by Dave Jones, taken from x86_64.
