KASAN causes increased stack usage, which can lead to stack overflows.
The logic in Kconfig to suggest a larger default doesn't work if a user
has CONFIG_EXPERT enabled and has an existing .config with a smaller
value.
Follow the lead of x86 and arm64, and force the thread size to be
increased when KASAN is enabled.
That also has the effect of enlarging the stack for 64-bit KASAN builds,
which is also desirable.

THREAD_SHIFT")
