Gerard Marull-Paretas 16811660ee arch: migrate includes to <zephyr/...>
In order to bring consistency in-tree, migrate all arch code to the new
prefix <zephyr/...>. Note that the conversion has been scripted, refer
to zephyrproject-rtos#45388 for more details.

Daniel Leung f8a909dad1 xtensa: add support for thread local storage
Adds the necessary bits to initialize TLS in the stack
area and sets up CPU registers during context switch.

Note that this does not enable TLS for all Xtensa SoC.
This is because Xtensa SoCs are highly configurable
so that each SoC can be considered a whole architecture.
So TLS needs to be enabled on the SoC level, instead of
at the arch level.

Andy Ross a34f884f23 xtensa: New asm layer to support SMP
SMP needs a new context switch primitive (to disentangle _swap() from
the scheduler) and new interrupt entry behavior (to be able to take a
global spinlock on behalf of legacy drivers).  The existing code is
very obtuse, and working with it led me down a long path of "this
would be so much better if..."  So this is a new context and entry
framework, intended to replace the code that exists now, at least on
SMP platforms.

New features:

* The new context switch primitive is xtensa_switch(), which takes a
  "new" context handle as an argument instead of getting it from the
  scheduler, returns an "old" context handle through a pointer
  (e.g. to save it to the old thread context), and restores the lock
  state(PS register) exactly as it is at entry instead of taking it as
  an argument.

* The register spill code understands wrap-around register windows and
  can avoid spilling A4-A15 registers when they are unused by the
  interrupted function, saving as much as 48 bytes of stack space on
  the interrupted stacks.

* The "spill register windows" routine is entirely different, using a
  different mechanism, and is MUCH FASTER (to the tune of almost 200
  cycles).  See notes in comments.

* Even better, interrupt entry can be done via a clever "cross stack
  call" I worked up, meaning that the interrupted thread's registers
  do not need to be spilled at all until they are naturally pushed out
  by the interrupt handler or until we return from the interrupt into
  a different thread.  This is a big efficiency win for tiny
  interrupts (e.g. timers), and a big latency win for all interrupts.

* Interrupt entry is 100% symmetric with respect to medium/high
  interrupts, avoiding the problems seen with hooking high priority
  interrupts with the current code (e.g. ESP-32's watchdog driver).

* Much smaller code size.  No cut and paste assembly.  No use of HAL
  calls.

* Assumes "XEA2" interrupt architecture, the register window extension
  (i.e. no CALL0 ABI), and the "high priority interrupts" extension.
  Does not support the legacy processor variants for which we have no
  targets.  The old code has some stuff in there to support this, but
  it seems bitrotten, untestable, and I'm all but certain it doesn't
  work.

Note that this simply adds the primitives to the existing tree in a
form where they can be unit tested.  It does not replace the existing
interrupt/exception handling or _Swap() implementation.
