(Chunk 3 of 3 - this patch was split across pull requests to address
CI build time limitations)
Zephyr has always been a uniprocessor system, and its kernel tests are
rife with assumptions and outright dependence on single-CPU operation
(for example: "low priority threads will never run until this high
priority thread blocks" -- not true if there's another processor to
run it!)
About 1/3 of our tests fail right now on x86_64 when dual processor
operation is made default. Most of those can probably be recovered on
a case-by-case basis with simple changes (and a few of them might
represent real bugs in SMP!), but for now let's make sure the full
test suite passes by turning the second CPU off. There's still plenty
of SMP coverage in the remaining cases.

k_poll is now accessible from user mode. A memory allocation takes place
from the caller's resource pool to copy the provided poll_events
array; this can be large enough to make allocating it on the stack
not preferable.
k_poll_signal are now proper kernel objects. Two APIs have been added,
one to reset the signaled state and one to check the current signaled
state and result value.
