The STM32 has special Core Coupled Memory, ccm for short, that can
only be accessed through the CPU and can not be use for DMA.
The following 3 sections have been added.
- ccm_bss for zero initialized data
- ccm_data for initialized data
- ccm_noinit for uninitialized data

The linker script places kernelspace and userspace archives in
different sections. But the linker script itself does not determine
what archives are in what space, that is done by CMake.
CMake passes the list of kernelspace archives to the linker script
through defines, like this:
-DNUM_KERNEL_OBJECT_FILES=3
-DKERNEL_OBJECT_FILE_0=path/to/archive_a.a
-DKERNEL_OBJECT_FILE_1=path/to/archive_b.a
-DKERNEL_OBJECT_FILE_2=path/to/archive_c.a
These paths are relative, and since Ninja and Make invoke the linker
with different "working directories"[0], the relative paths need to be
different. This patch rectifies the relative path when using Ninja.

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.

An abnormal crash was encountered in ARMv6-M SoCs that don't have flash
starting at 0. With Zephyr OS the reason for this crash is that, on
ARMv6-M the system requires an exception vector table at the 0 address.
We implement the relocate_vector_table function to move the vector table
code to address 0 on systems which don't have the start of code already
at 0.
[kumar.gala: reworderd commit message, tweaked how we check if we need
to copy vector table]

These can be computed from start/end values, but such
arithmetic can't be done when populating at build time
struct member values.
Some documentation has been added to explain exactly
what these symbols mean. It is intended for application
RAM to come first, then followed by kernel RAM and then
all unclaimed memory (also considered kernel RAM).
Obsolete _image_ram_all[] removed.

This was not working properly but only noticeable if the
sections involved were not preceded by a KERNEL_INPUT_SECTION
definition for the same sections (i.e. the application data
coming first in the memory map)

1) start/end addresses for rodata
2) size of image ROM area
3) size of RAM (not including rodata/text) up to the limit of
physical memory

Applications will have their own BSS and data sections which
will need to be additionally copied.
This covers the common C implementation of these functions.
Arches which implement their own optimized versions will need
to be updated.

This is conditionally defined based on whether we are splitting
the application from the kernel, and is used for specifying
kernel input sections based on input files.
The kernel output sections will get matching input sections only
in libzephyr.a and kernel/lib.a.
