This line was missed when the task IRQ APIs were deprecated
by commit a83f895dd5.

Incorporates the brief discussion of device driver support into
the Device Drivers document, so that the driver material is all
in one place. (Also converts a few unprintable characters in the
latter document to spaces, since they appear to have been used
by accident.)
Removes the empty discussion of networking support, to avoid
duplicating stuff already covered in the Networking document.

microkernel: deprecate task IRQs
This mechanism does not add enough value to the kernel to be worth
maintaining it. Drivers that need deferred processing of interrupts
can simply define their own task and have the interrupt handler
release an event that the task waits on.
The API is marked as deprecated and it is removed from unit test
coverage as well as the documentation.

Change the terminology in the documentation and use board instead
of platform where applicable.

Fixed typo in system_fundamentals. Acronyms FIFO and LIFO
defined with capital letters in kernel_fundamentals. Added bold
to paragraph lists to enhance readability in application_fundamentals
Added lots of :dfn: syntax for better interlinking to API.
Corrected whitespace for sub-bullet directive.

Adds a short section to make clear that microkernel applications
can utilize fibers, and can even use them with a few microkernel
object types. Revises some link names to account for the fact that
there are now 2 sections describing fiber services.

The kernel's services previously referred to as "signalling services",
which include object types such as semaphores, events, and mutexes,
are now referred to as "synchronization services". This term more
clearly conveys their use as a means to synchronize the operation
of two or more entities within the kernel.

A complete rewrite of the Overview section. The revised text
provides a more logical and comprehensive introduction to the
main concepts and capabilities of Zephyr, without providing
an excessive level of detail. (Those details should be provided
by the remaining sections of the Kernel Primer.)
This rewrite has also resulted in some small changes to the
About Zephyr and other Kernel Primer sections.
