Unlike CONFIG_HW_STACK_PROTECTION, which greatly helps
expose stack overflows in test code, activating
userspace without putting threads in user mode is of
very limited value.
Now CONFIG_TEST_USERSPACE is off by default. Any test
which puts threads in user mode will need to set
CONFIG_TEST_USERSPACE.
This should greatly increase sanitycheck build times
as there is non-trivial build time overhead to
enabling this feature. This also allows some tests
which failed the build on RAM-constrained platforms
to compile properly.
tests/drivers/build_all is a special case; it doesn't
put threads in user mode, but we want to ensure all
the syscall handlers compile properly.
Fixes: #15103 (and probably others)

Useful tool for performance work that removes interaction with other
APIs and thread state. The best part is that it doesn't rely on timer
interrupt delivery and so works with -icount even on existing qemu
versions and produces deterministic output.
