ARC CPU has stack checking feature that allows to trigger an exception
whenever the stack is incorrectly accessed.
This patch implements the stack_top and stack_base register updates on
context switches, and activates the Stack Checking bit of STATUS32
register when the CPU is in the context of a fiber or task.
As GCC accesses the non-yet allocated stack with frame pointer enabled,
this patch also add the omit-frame-pointer gcc flag in order to work
properly.

The thread monitor allows to iterate over the thread context
structures for each existing thread (fiber/task) in the system.
Thread context structures do not expose thread entry information
directly. Although all the information can be scavenged from memory
stacks. Besides, accessing the information depends on the stack
implementation for each architecture.
By extending the tcs we allow a direct access to the thread
entry point and its parameters, only when thread monitor is
enabled.
It also allows a task to access its kernel task structure
through the first parameter of the thread.
This allows a debugger application to access the information directly
from the thread context structures list.

Fix an issue where, if a task is pending on a nano timeout, the duration
it wants to wait is not taken into account by the tickless idle code.
This could cause a system to wait forever, or to the limit of the timer
hardware (which is forever, for all intents and purposes).
This fix is to add one field in the nanokernel data structure for one
task to record the amount of ticks it will wait on a nano timeout. Only
one task has to be able to record this information, since, these waits
being looping busy waits, the task of highest priority is the only task
that can be actively waiting with a nano timeout. If a task of lower
priority was previously waiting, and a new task is now waiting, it means
that the wait of the original task has been interrupted, which will
cause said task to run the busy loop on the object again when it gets
scheduled, and the number of ticks it wants to wait has to be recomputed
and recorded again.

Saves an errno per-thread, retrieved via _get_errno(), instead of
changing the value of a global variable during context switches to avoid
a hit to the context switch performance.
Per-arch asm implementations are provided for maximum performance.
Enabled by default, but can be disabled via the CONFIG_ERRNO option.

All supported platforms have descending stack (growth direction is
down). To avoid confusion just remove not needed stack direction
defines.
If new platform with stack direction up is added is should be
configured by adding Kconfig option eg STACK_GROWS_UP and
CONFIG_STACK_GROWS_UP should be used in code that depends on
stack growth direction.

The term 'context' is vague and overloaded. Its usage for 'an execution
context' is now referred as such, in both comments and some APIs' names.
When the execution context can only be a fiber or a task (i.e. not an
ISR), it is referred to as a 'thread', again in comments and everywhere
in the code.
APIs that had their names changed:
- nano_context_id_t is now nano_thread_id_t
- context_self_get() is now sys_thread_self_get()
- context_type_get() is now sys_execution_context_type_get()
- context_custom_data_set/get() are now
sys_thread_custom_data_set/get()
The 'context' prefix namespace does not have to be reserved by the
kernel anymore.
The Context Control Structure (CCS) data structure is now the Thread
Control Structure (TCS):
- struct ccs is now struct tcs
- tCCS is now tTCS
