This file was updated and included in the nanokernel
primer information. It showcases the simple use of
nanokernel semaphores, timers and fibers.

Simplifies the nanokernel timer API so that the timeout parameter must be
specified when invoking nano_isr_timer_test(), nano_fiber_timer_test(),
nano_task_timer_test() and nano_timer_test().
This obsoletes the following APIs:
nano_fiber_timer_wait()
nano_task_timer_wait()
nano_timer_wait()
Note that even the though the new API requires that the timeout parameter
be specified, there are currentl only two acceptable values:
TICKS_NONE and TICKS_UNLIMITED
Theoretically, the current implementation would allow one to supply a
finite positive value for the timeout and the system would wait up to
that many ticks for the timer to expire. However, it is thought that
that unnecessarily complicates the nanokernel timer model and so it is
left as an unsupported option. Should that change, then that feature
could be enabled by updating the documentation.

There is no concept of a "process" in the system, so remove last
mentions of that concept from free-form text (doc, comments, macro
parameter names).

Moves the Nanokernel Object documentation to a new Nanokernel Services
section within the Kernel Primer. Labels, cross-references, figures,
headings and filenames were updated to reflect the new structure.
