Now that net_buf has "native" support for sys_slist_t in the form of
the sys_snode_t member, there's a danger people will forget to clear
out buf->frags when getting buffers from a list directly with
sys_slist_get(). This is analogous to the reason why we have
net_buf_get/put APIs instead of using k_fifo_get/put.

Convert code to use u{8,16,32,64}_t and s{8,16,32,64}_t instead of C99
integer types.

The headings on some .rst files were not following the expected
heading order of using # for h1, * for h2, = for h3, and - for h4
This patch fixes that, and the doc/templates/*.tmpl files created
for folks to use as templates for creating board and sample docs.

Using a LIFO instead of a FIFO has the potential benefit that more
recently in-use buffers may be "cache-hot" and therefore accessed
faster than least recently used (which is what we get with a FIFO).

In order to keep the initialization process light-weight, remove
net_buf_pool_init() and instead perform the initialization of the pool
and buffers in a "lazy" manner. This means storing more information
in the pool, and removing any 'const' members from net_buf. Since
there are no more const members in net_buf the buffer array can be
declared with __noinit, which further reduces initialization overhead.

Until now it has been necessary to separately define a k_fifo and
an array of buffers when creating net_buf pools. This has been a bit
of an inconvenience as well as blurred the line of what exactly
constitutes the "pool".
This patch removes the NET_BUF_POOL() macro and replaces it with a
NET_BUF_POOL_DEFINE() macro that internally expands into the buffer
array and new net_buf_pool struct with a given name:
NET_BUF_POOL_DEFINE(pool_name, ...);
Having a dedicated context struct for the pool has the added benefit
that we can start moving there net_buf members that have the same
value for all buffers from the same pool. The first such member that
gets moved is the destroy callback, thus shrinking net_buf by four
bytes. Another potential candidate is the user_data_size, however
right not that's left out since it would just leave 2 bytes of padding
in net_buf (i.e. not influence its size). Another common value is
buf->size, however that one is also used by net_buf_simple and can
therefore not be moved.
This patch also splits getting buffers from a FIFO and allocating a
new buffer from a pool into two separate APIs: net_buf_get and
net_buf_alloc, thus simplifying the APIs and their usage. There is no
separate 'reserve_head' parameter anymore when allocating, rather the
user is expected to call net_buf_reserve() afterwards if something
else than 0 headroom is desired.
