PR #11165 causes an unnecessary regression; task_delete no longer works,
if the deleted task is from another group.
The logic that prevents this comes from:
nxnotify_cancellation() ->
tls_get_info_pid() ->
nxsched_get_stackinfo()
Which checks for permissions, which does not make sense in this case since
it is the kernel asking for the stack information.
Fix this by partially reverting 11165 and implementing a direct path for
the kernel to query for any tasks TLS.
This moves task / thread cancel point logic from the NuttX kernel into
libc, while the data needed by the cancel point logic is moved to TLS.
The change is an enabler to move user-space APIs to libc as well, for
a coherent user/kernel separation.
Remove calls to the userspace API exit() from the kernel. The problem
with doing such calls is that the exit functions are called with kernel
mode privileges which is a big security no-no.
Do not allow a deferred cancellation if the group is exiting, it is too
dangerous to allow the threads to execute any user space code after the
exit has started.
If the cancelled thread is not inside a cancellation point, just kill it
immediately via asynchronous cancellation. This will create far less
problems than allowing it to continue running user code.
pthread_exit will be called recursive when pthread_cancel
or other cleanup operation with syscalls that support
cancellation, to avoid this by mark current tcb flag as
TCB_FLAG_CANCEL_DOING instead of TCB_FLAG_CANCEL_PENDING.

Drop to user-space in kernel/protected build with up_pthread_exit,
now all pthread_cleanup functions executed in user mode.
* A new syscall SYS_pthread_exit added
* A new tcb flag TCB_FLAG_CANCEL_DOING added
* up_pthread_exit implemented for riscv/arm arch

Squashed commit of the following:
Trivial, cosmetic
sched/, arch/, and include: Rename task_vforkstart() as nxtask_vforkstart()
sched/, arch/, and include: Rename task_vforkabort() as nxtask_vforkabort()
sched/, arch/, and include: Rename task_vforksetup() as nxtask_vfork_setup()
sched/: Rename notify_cancellation() as nxnotify_cancellation()
sched/: Rename task_recover() to nxtask_recover()
sched/task, sched/pthread/, Documentation/: Rename task_argsetup() and task_terminate() to nxtask_argsetup() and nxtask_terminate(), respectively.
sched/task: Rename task_schedsetup() to nxtask_schedsetup()
sched/ (plus some binfmt/, include/, and arch/): Rename task_start() and task_starthook() to nxtask_start() and nxtask_starthook().
arch/ and sched/: Rename task_exit() and task_exithook() to nxtask_exit() and nxtask_exithook(), respectively.
sched/task: Rename all internal, static, functions to begin with the nx prefix.
sched/mqueue: Rename all private static functions for use the nxmq_ vs. mq_ naming.
sched/mqueue: Rename all OS internal functions declared in sched/mqueue/mqueue.h to begin with nxmq_ vs. mq_. The mq_ prefix is reserved for standard application interfaces.
libc/semaphore: Add nxsem_getvalue() which is identical to sem_getvalue() except that it never modifies the errno variable. Changed all references to sem_getvalue in the OS to nxsem_getvalue().
sched/semaphore: Rename all internal private functions from sem_xyz to nxsem_xyz. The sem_ prefix is (will be) reserved only for the application semaphore interfaces.
libc/semaphore: Add nxsem_init() which is identical to sem_init() except that it never modifies the errno variable. Changed all references to sem_init in the OS to nxsem_init().
sched/semaphore: Rename sem_tickwait() to nxsem_tickwait() so that it is clear this is an internal OS function.
sched/semaphoate: Rename sem_reset() to nxsem_reset() so that it is clear this is an internal OS function.
