Some drivers or tests need to execute some code before Zephyr is
booted, dynamically register command line arguments, etc.
For this purpose, we generalize the NATIVE_EXIT_TASK to also
provide hooks to run a function at a given point during the startup
of native_posix.
Also, test/boards/native_posix/exit_tasks is generalized to cover
this new functionality.

Some of the native application components or drivers need to
do a proper cleanup before the executable exits.
So we provide a macro similar to SYS_INIT but which will be
called just before exiting.
This can be used for freeing up resources, closing descriptors,
or doing any neccessary signaling to any other host process.

Modify the linker script with the command INSERT.
It instructs the linker to augment the default linker script
SECTIONS with the ones provided with the one provided in
this script.
It also modified the meaning of the -T switch, so it no longer
replaces the default linker script

A new arch (posix) which relies on pthreads to emulate the context
switching
A new soc for it (inf_clock) which emulates a CPU running at an
infinely high clock (so when the CPU is awaken it runs till completion
in 0 time)
A new board, which provides a trivial system tick timer and
irq generation.
