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.

To make the documentation readable from the source I want to get rid of the
substitutions for the project name an code name. This does not add any values
and makes it unreadable when looking at the text files directly. It also causes
some issues when people use those without actually knowing what they represent,
resulting in some weird and redundant language.

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.

Moves the files from Architecture to the Overview section of the Kernel
Primer. Cross-references and figures were updated to reflect the new
structure. Headings and content were changed as little as possible.
These changes are needed to implement the proposed new structure of the
documentation. Content was changed as created as little as possible.
