Up until now, the `__thread` keyword has been used for declaring
variables as Thread local storage. However, `__thread` is a GNU
specific keyword which thus limits compatibility with other
toolchains (for instance IAR).
This PR intoduces a new macro `Z_THREAD_LOCAL` which expands to the
corresponding C11, C23 or C++11 standard keyword based on the standard
that is specified during compilation, else it uses the old `__thread`
keyword.

Augment the doc with functionality added in commit a211970b42 ("riscv:
improve contended FPU switching").
Signed-off-by: Nicolas Pitre <npitre@baylibre.com>
FPU context switching is always performed on demand through the FPU
access exception handler. Actual task switching only grants or denies
FPU access depending on the current FPU owner.
Because RISC-V doesn't have a dedicated FPU access exception, we must
catch the Illegal Instruction exception and look for actual FP opcodes.
There is no longer a need to allocate FPU storage on the stack for every
exception making esf smaller and stack overflows less likely.

At some recent point, directory <zephyr-root>/include was moved to
<zephyr-root>/include/zephyr. However, links from documentation to
Zephyr source on Github were not updated. Update them now.
