\brief Annex the original system stack to the heap.

Should be called only once, inside a thread, after the call to the functions
heapinit() and vTaskStartScheduler(), when the original stack is no more in use.



This function works only for the combination PIC18 microcontrollers +
MPLAB-C18 compiler + FreeRTOS (www.freertos.org).
