Clean up some stray references to cmake in doc, boards and
samples that don't make explicit use of the zephyr app extension,
as well as other minor doc fixes.

Updates based on discussion and changes in supported features.
- Make the guide shorter by removing content that's not relevant to
most users who are truly just getting started, such as information
about pre-LTS versions that did not support west, and by being more
concise in some places.
- Decrease the number of colored boxes. At the latest TSC F2F, the
"note / warning / note / tip" contents were identified as a
readability problem.
- Add additional information based on new west features, like "west
boards".

The second serial port (UART_1) can be used for connecting to
host serial port. This is used for example by PPP (Point-to-Point
Protocol) implementation in which case the pppd running in Linux host
connects to a pty that is linked to UART_1 in Zephyr.

Be consistent in how board docs are named and move all to index.rst.
This will make the URL to the board documentation predictable and easier
to remember.

This driver introduces an emulated LCD display for the native POSIX
board. The emulated display driver makes use of SDL2 to render the
displays frame buffer into a dedicated desktop window.

native_posix is, from some reports, known to not compile
on macOS. Therefore let's better remove the line that says
that in principle it should to avoid missleading users.

Added a new simulated board, which models the NRF52832 SOC.
Its main use is for workstation testing and simulation of
the BLE stack and any application which relies mostly on it.
It uses BabbleSim (http://Babblesim.github.io) for the radio
simulation.
And the NRF52 HW models hosted in that same GitHub organization:
https://github.com/BabbleSim/ext_NRF52_hw_models
For speed it uses the POSIX arch to (not) emulate the CPU.
It uses Vanilla Zephyr, with a couple of configuration differences:
* It uses (like other POSIX arch boards) the system libC
* It does not use the nrfx hosted by Zehpyr in ext/, but the one
provided by the HW models.
Otherwise it relies in the same drivers as the real NRF52 boards.

Now, there is quite many more command line options for the
native_posix executable. But, which are available, depends
on the configuration. Therefore let's not list them in the doc,
but instead tell people to use the --help option.

Added a new UART driver for posix arch boards.
The driver can be configured to either attach to a new
pseudo-terminal, or to connect to the invoking shell
stdin-out.

For native_posix:
Added the option to control the speed of the simualated time vs
the real(host) time.
Added a model of a real time clock with an API.
In the documentation we clarify the relationship between simulated
time and real time, and include documentaion of this new RTC.

For the native_posix board,
added the command line options -rt and -no-rt to control
if the execution should be slowed down to real time or not.
CONFIG_NATIVE_POSIX_SLOWDOWN_TO_REAL_TIME still works, but
now it just sets a default.

To avoid indeterministic behaviour of the tests
which leads to changing coverage reports, let's
finish the tests exectuion as soon as they pass
or fail.
Also let's return 0 to the shell if the test passed,
and 1 if it failed.

Quite a lot of improvements in the native_posix board
documentation:
* Added TOC
* Reordered
* Given much more emphasis to its limitation
* Added subsection explaining how to overcome some of these
limitations
* Added rationale section
* Added section comparing this port with QEMU and ISSs
* Corrected build example (this port cannot be compiled on
Windows, regression from commit
e62ee6ab3c )
* Added note about it not working on W10 WSL (#5762)
* Several other minor fixes
