The kernel version has been converted from a string to a four-byte
quantity that is divided into two parts.
Part 1: The three most significant bytes represent the kernel's
numeric version, x.y.z. These fields denote:
x -- major release
y -- minor release
z -- patchlevel release
Each of these elements must therefore be in the range 0 to 256, inclusive.
Part 2: The least significant byte is reserved for future use.
EXTRAVERSION is used for intermediate releases and customised
builds on top of an existing/released version.

Eliminates the need to reserve the "kernel_" prefix in the
kernel namespace. Also, aligns versioning with other APIs
that are neither nanokernel_ or microkernel-specific, such
as the system clock APIs.

Now located with the other public APIs related to kernel versioning.
