This patch adds support for userspace on ARM architectures. Arch
specific calls for transitioning threads to user mode, system calls,
and associated handlers.

Historically, space for struct k_thread was always carved out of the
thread's stack region. However, we want more control on where this data
will reside; in memory protection scenarios the stack may only be used
for actual stack data and nothing else.
On some platforms (particularly ARM), including kernel_arch_data.h from
the toplevel kernel.h exposes intractable circular dependency issues.
We create a new per-arch header "kernel_arch_thread.h" with very limited
scope; it only defines the three data structures necessary to instantiate
the arch-specific bits of a struct k_thread.
