Add a table summarizing the key characteristics of each
of the data passing objects.
It is useful for readers to have an overview they can skim without
having to read each section in detail.

Splitting these up by area helps make the sidebar a bit easier to

Add some diagrams showing the different scheduling algorithms we
support.
The diagrams were made using draw.io and can be edit using draw.io.

This commit adds a short note in reference/kernel/other/float.
The note instructs to apply pre-tagging of ARM threads to
indicate that they indend to use the FP services.

The first word is used as a pointer, meaning it is 64 bits on 64-bit
systems. To reserve it, it has to be either a pointer, a long, or an
intptr_t. Not an int nor an u32_t.

The Quark D2000 is the only x86 with an MVIC, and since support for
it has been dropped, the interrupt controller is orphaned. Removed.

The k_stack data type cannot be u32_t on a 64-bit system as it is
often used to store pointers. Let's define a dedicated type for stack
data values, namely stack_data_t, which can be adjusted accordingly.
For now it is defined to uintptr_t which is the integer type large
enough to hold a pointer, meaning it is equivalent to u32_t on 32-bit
systems and u64_t on 64-bit systems.

The approved trademark name is Wi-Fi so update references to WiFi and
other spellings to Wi-Fi in documentation and Kconfig help strings.
(Note that use of spelling variatios of "wifi" in module names, CONFIG
names, link names and such are untouched.)

This commit removes the activation of the FP context
in ARM system boot. There is no need to do this, since
the FP context will be activated in the presence of
floating point instructions. We update the reference
documentation accordingly.

This commit updates the documentation as follows:
- stresses that the lazy stacking preservation is disabled
by default and not supported in ARM Cortex-M builds,
- corrects the figure of extra stack requirement when
floating point services are enabled in ARM builds.

This commit provides the following fixes:
- Corrects the note regarding which ARM MCUs may support
floating point services
- Rewords the text stressing the undefined behavior when
multiple threads access the floating point registers.

Linking to API material requires knowing the pecularities of how
doxygen, sphinx, and breathe work. In an attempt to hide some of this
we're preparing the current docs to allow use of configuration defaults
that will let us more simply use a default role that will hunt for a
reference target in the various domains that are available by using a
default "role" of "all". This will let us use the simple notation
`functionname` or `typename` without fully specifying the reference as
:c:func:`functionname`.
This patch cleans up exising docs that were (incorrectly) using single
backtics where double backtics should have been used, and also found
some typos (such as a space between the role name and the reference,
such as :file: `filename`, and a missing colon such as
c:func:`functionname`)
This is a start to address issue #14313

This was never a long-term solution, more of a gross hack
to get test cases working until we could figure out a good
end-to-end solution for memory domains that generated
appropriate linker sections. Now that we have this with
the app shared memory feature, and have converted all tests
to remove it, delete this feature.
To date all userspace APIs have been tagged as 'experimental'
which sidesteps deprecation policies.
