Andrew Boie d9cfbd5a61 interrupts: new static IRQ API
The interrupt API has been redesigned:

- irq_connect() for dynamic interrupts renamed to irq_connect_dynamic().
  It will be used in situations where the new static irq_connect()
  won't work, i.e. the value of arguments can't be computed at build time
- a new API for static interrupts replaces irq_connect(). it is used
  exactly the same way as its dynamic counterpart. The old static irq
  macros will be removed
- Separate stub assembly files are no longer needed as the stubs are now
  generated inline with irq_connect()

ReST documentation updated for the changed API. Some detail about the
IDT in ROM added, and an oblique reference to the internal-only
_irq_handler_set() API removed; we don't talk about internal APIs in
the official documentation.

Andrew Boie 3589695508 ipi: rename to ipm
To many people, IPI connotes inter-processor interrupts on SMP
systems. Rename this to IPM, or Inter-Processor Mailboxes.
