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.

This driver allows multiple drivers to share a common interrupt
line. This functionality is required on system that conform to the PC
interrupt structure. In the context of Zephyr this is needed for
SOC's that have their I/O IP blocks behind a PCI interface. Due to the
limited number of interrupt lines provided by the PCI interface
multiple IP blocks may be configured to share an interrupt line.
Drivers that share interrupts must be modified to *not* register their
own interrupt service routine as part of their configuration/initialization
but instead bind to the correct instance of this driver by name, then
register their interrupt service routine with this driver.
