When running multiple subsystems or applications on a MCU, the usual
strategy is to use different settings subtrees.
The API provides a way to load or commit a subtree, to avoid adding
dependencies between subsystems or applications, but lacks the way to
save a subtree only. Fix that by adding a settings_save_subtree()
function.

Issue:
When the setting nvs cache is disabled and `settings_nvs_save` is
called, the function reads all stored setting name entries from NVS
until either finds the desired setting name entry or reaches the last
stored setting name entry.
With the settings nvs cache enabled, `settings_nvs_save` runs through
the cached setting name entries first. If the cached entry matches with
the desired one, it immediately writes the new setting value to NVS
that corresponds to the cached setting name entry.
However, if the setting name entry is not found in the cache (which is
the case for a new entry), `settings_nvs_save` reads all stored setting
name entries from NVS again. This means that even if the number of
stored entries in the settings is less than the cache size, for each
new setting entry to be stored `settings_nvs_save` will first run
through the cache, then read all stored setting name entries from NVS
and only then will pick the next free name id for this new setting name
entry and will finally store the new setting entry.
This makes the cache ineffiсient for every new entry to be stored even
when the cache size is always able to keep all setting entries that will
be stored in NVS.
Use-case:
In the Bluetooth mesh there is a Replay Protection List which keeps
sequence numbers of all nodes it received messages from. The RPL is
stored persistently in NVS. The setting name entry is the source
address of the node and the setting value entry is the sequence number.
The common use case is when RPL is quite big (for example, 255 entries).
With the current settings nvs cache implementation, every time the node
stores a new RPL entry in settings (which is the first received message
from a particular source address), `settings_nvs_save` will always check
the cache first, then also read all stored entries in NVS and only then
will figure out that this is a new entry. With every new RPL entry to be
stored this search time increases. This behavior results in much worse
performance in comparison with when the corresponding entry was already
stored. E.g. on nRF52840, with bare minimal mesh stack configuration,
when the cache is bigger than number of stored entries or close to it,
storing of 255 RPL entries takes ~25 seconds. The time of subsequent
store of 255 RPL entires is ~2 seconds with the cache.
Solution:
This commit improves the behavior of the first write by bypassing the
reading from NVS if the following conditions are met:
1. `settings_nvs_load` was called,
2. the cache was not overflowed (bigger than the number of stored
entries).
As long as these 2 conditiones are met, it is safe to skip reading from
NVS, pick the next free name id and write the value immediately.

Settings NVS adds entry into Settings NVS cache after writing it
into flash. Previously, the entry was added into cache only
on the second writing attempt that caused very huge timing
despite cache was enabled since it was still empty.

Improved the updates to the name ID metadata (NVS_NAMECNT_ID) item
in the Settings NVS backend implementation. The improvements should
make the implementation more robust in handling edge cases such as:
power downs, resets or a case in which the storage partition is
full. In the last case, the NVS backend could return an ENOSPC error
in the context of the settings_delete API. This change also fixes
this issue.

There is already CONFIG_SETTINGS_FILE_PATH, which is set to full file path,
while CONFIG_SETTINGS_FILE_DIR is required to be set to its parent
directory. This is redundant, as parent directory path can be easily found
out either during runtime or optionally during buildtime by CMake.
CONFIG_SETTINGS_FILE_DIR was actually introduced recently after Zephyr 3.2
release as a replacement of deprecated CONFIG_SETTINGS_FS_DIR. This means,
that there is no need to deprecate it for 3.3 release and dropping it
should be fine. Adjust 3.3 release notes accordingly, so that
CONFIG_SETTINGS_FILE_PATH will be used directly.
This patch stops using deprecated CONFIG_SETTINGS_FS_DIR. There is actually
no value in respecting it, as setting anything other than parent directory
of CONFIG_SETTINGS_FS_FILE makes no sense.
There is actually one use of CONFIG_SETTINGS_FILE_DIR in file backend
tests, to derive directory for files containing tested settings.
CONFIG_SETTINGS_FILE_PATH is not used there, so it makes little sense to
derive directory name from it. Instead, just use hardcoded "/settings"
subdirectory, as this was the default value of CONFIG_SETTINGS_FILE_DIR.
Deriving parent directory can be done either in runtime or in
buildtime (e.g. using some helper CMake function). Doing it in runtime
however allows to create directory recursively (which this patch actually
implements), e.g. for some more nested FS tree structure. Additionally it
will simplify migration of settings configuration from Kconfig to
device-tree (yet to be developed feature).

There is little reason to panic on settings backend initialization error.
Such behavior was introduced with initial settings subsystem support, which
was adapted from MyNewt. This is not the usual way how Zephyr handles
errors, so it is time to change that.
There is already handling of some errors by simply returning / propagating
them to caller. Rework all the paths that resulted in k_panic() to also
return error codes.

File backend can be read-only with the use of `settings_file_src()` API. It
makes no sense to create file when `settings_load()` is called and
registered file backend won't be used for saving files (because
`settings_file_dst()` was not used).
Do not create file during `settings_load()` if it does not exist yet. This
just requires to remove FS_O_CREATE flag in `fs_open()` invocation.
Open file with read-only access, which is now possible after removal of
`FS_O_CREATE` flag.

Currently there is inconsistency in repository file names, APIs, Kconfig
options and documentation around file / file-system backend for settings
storage, as both "file" and "FS (file system)" are used. As an example,
there is `CONFIG_SETTINGS_FS` Kconfig option, but the file that implements
this settings backend is called `settings_file.c`. Another example are
names of static functions that implement settings storage API:
`settings_file_load()`, `settings_file_save()` and
`settings_fs_storage_get()`.
This backend is actually storing all settings in a single file, so it makes
sense to use "File" as the name of backend, instead of a more general
"FS" (which would make sense if several files would be used to store
settings).
Fix inconsistency in used wording in the tree and unify it to "settings
file backend". This naming is more precise to how the implementation looks.
It will also make it easier to grep through the codebase and analyze
existing code.
Deprecate settings_mount_fs_backend() function and all Kconfig options
starting with `CONFIG_SETTINGS_FS`.

As of today <zephyr/zephyr.h> is 100% equivalent to <zephyr/kernel.h>.
This patch proposes to then include <zephyr/kernel.h> instead of
<zephyr/zephyr.h> since it is more clear that you are including the
Kernel APIs and (probably) nothing else. <zephyr/zephyr.h> sounds like a
catch-all header that may be confusing. Most applications need to
include a bunch of other things to compile, e.g. driver headers or
subsystem headers like BT, logging, etc.
The idea of a catch-all header in Zephyr is probably not feasible
anyway. Reason is that Zephyr is not a library, like it could be for
example `libpython`. Zephyr provides many utilities nowadays: a kernel,
drivers, subsystems, etc and things will likely grow. A catch-all header
would be massive, difficult to keep up-to-date. It is also likely that
an application will only build a small subset. Note that subsystem-level
headers may use a catch-all approach to make things easier, though.
NOTE: This patch is **NOT** removing the header, just removing its usage
in-tree. I'd advocate for its deprecation (add a #warning on it), but I
understand many people will have concerns.
