task_spawn() and posix_spawn() are NuttX OS interfaces. In PROTECTED and KERNEL build modes, then can be reached from applications only via a system call. Currently, the number of parameters in a system call is limited to six; these spawn function have seven parameters. Rather than extend the maximum number of parameters across all architectures, I opted instead to marshal the seven parameters into a structure.

In order to support builtin in function in protected mode, a task_spawn() system call must be supported. Unfortunately this is overly complex because there is a (soft) limit of 6 parameters in a system call; task_spawn has seven paramters. This is a soft limit but still difficult to extend because it involves assembly language changes to numerous architectures. Better to get more creative.

Squashed commit of the following:
libs/libxx: Fix some confusing in naming. If the directory is called libxx, then the library must be libxx.a (unless perhaps LIBCXX is selected).
libs/: Fix paths in moved library directories.
libs: Brute force move of libc, libnx, and libxx to libs. Cannot yet build it in that configuration.
