This got broken. Add some #ifery to handle the case. Not clean, will
clean up in a future pass once the API is final.

If the idle code was detecting that it needed to sleep for less than
CONFIG_SYS_TICKLESS_IDLE_THRESH, then it would never call
z_clock_set_timeout() at all, which means that the system would never
wake up unless it already had a timeout scheduled! Apparently we
lacked a test case to detect this condition.
Honestly this seems like a crazy feature to me. There's no benefit in
delivering needless tick announcements. If the system has the
capacity to enter deeper sleep for long timeouts, that's already
exposed via the PM APIs, the timer subsystem needn't be involved.
But... we actually have a test (tickless_concept) that looks at this,
so support it for now and consider deprecation later.

This code (just refactored as part of the timer API work) turns out to
be needless. It's trying to detect the case where we're being asked
to idle for zero time, but that's not possible with a properly
functioning timer driver: the call to z_clock_announce() must happen
out of an interrupt, and this is the idle thread, which must sit below
any possible interrupt priority. The call to z_clock_uptime() must
not ever return "too late" until after the timer interrupt has fired,
at which point we'll be inspecting the next timeout (which itself is
guaranteed to be in the future for the same reason).

The tickless driver had a bunch of "hairy" APIs which forced the timer
drivers to do needless low-level accounting for the benefit of the
kernel, all of which then proceeded to implement them via cut and
paste. Specifically the "program_time" calls forced the driver to
expose to the kernel exactly when the next interrupt was due and how
much time had elapsed, in a parallel API to the existing "what time is
it" and "announce a tick" interrupts that carry the same information.
Remove these from the kernel, replacing them with synthesized logic
written in terms of the simpler APIs.
In some cases there will be a performance impact due to the use of the
64 bit uptime call, but that will go away soon.

Rename timer driver API functions to be consistent. ADD DOCS TO THE
HEADER so implementations understand what the requirements are.
Remove some unused functions that don't need declarations here.
Also removes the per-platform #if's around the power control callback
in favor of a weak-linked noop function in the driver initialization
(adds a few bytes of code to default platforms -- we'll live, I
think).

The existing API had two almost identical functions: _set_time() and
_timer_idle_enter(). Both simply instruct the timer driver to set the
next timer interrupt expiration appropriately so that the call to
z_clock_announce() will be made at the requested number of ticks. On
most/all hardware, these should be implementable identically.
Unfortunately because they are specified differently, existing drivers
have implemented them in parallel.
Specify a new, unified, z_clock_set_timeout(). Document it clearly
for implementors. And provide a shim layer for legacy drivers that
will continue to use the old functions.
Note that this patch fixes an existing bug found by inspection: the
old call to _set_time() out of z_clock_announce() failed to test for
the "wait forever" case in the situation where clock_always_on is
true, meaning that a system that reached this point and then never set
another timeout would freeze its uptime clock incorrectly.

This was wrong in two ways, one subtle and one awful.
The subtle problem was that the IRQ lock isn't actually globally
recursive, it gets reset when you context switch (i.e. a _Swap()
implicitly releases and reacquires it). So the recursive count I was
keeping needs to be per-thread or else we risk deadlock any time we
swap away from a thread holding the lock.
And because part of my brain apparently knew this, there was an
"optimization" in the code that tested the current count vs. zero
outside the lock, on the argument that if it was non-zero we must
already hold the lock. Which would be true of a per-thread counter,
but NOT a global one: the other CPU may be holding that lock, and this
test will tell you *you* do. The upshot is that a recursive
irq_lock() would almost always SUCCEED INCORRECTLY when there was lock
contention. That this didn't break more things is amazing to me.
The rework is actually simpler than the original, thankfully. Though
there are some further subtleties:
* The lock state implied by irq_lock() allows the lock to be
implicitly released on context switch (i.e. you can _Swap() with the
lock held at a recursion level higher than 1, which needs to allow
other processes to run). So return paths into threads from _Swap()
and interrupt/exception exit need to check and restore the global
lock state, spinning as needed.
* The idle loop design specifies a k_cpu_idle() function that is on
common architectures expected to enable interrupts (for obvious
reasons), but there is no place to put non-arch code to wire it into
the global lock accounting. So on SMP, even CPU0 needs to use the
"dumb" spinning idle loop.
Finally this patch contains a simple bugfix too, found by inspection:
the interrupt return code used when CONFIG_SWITCH is enabled wasn't
correctly setting the active flag on the threads, opening up the
potential for a race that might result in a thread being scheduled on
two CPUs simultaneously.

A pure timer-based idle won't work well in SMP. Without an IPI to
wake up idle CPUs out of the scheduler they will sleep far too long
and the main CPU will do all the scheduling of wake-up-and-sleep
processes. Instead just have the auxilary CPUs do a traditional
busy-wait scheduler in their idle loop.
We will need to revisit an architecture that allows both
wait-for-timer-interrupt idle and SMP.

Adds event based scheduling logic to the kernel. Updates
management of timeouts, timers, idling etc. based on
time tracked at events rather than periodic ticks. Provides
interfaces for timers to announce and get next timer expiry
based on kernel scheduling decisions involving time slicing
of threads, timeouts and idling. Uses wall time units instead
of ticks in all scheduling activities.
The implementation involves changes in the following areas
1. Management of time in wall units like ms/us instead of ticks
The existing implementation already had an option to configure
number of ticks in a second. The new implementation builds on
top of that feature and provides option to set the size of the
scheduling granurality to mili seconds or micro seconds. This
allows most of the current implementation to be reused. Due to
this re-use and co-existence with tick based kernel, the names
of variables may contain the word "tick". However, in the
tickless kernel implementation, it represents the currently
configured time unit, which would be be mili seconds or
micro seconds. The APIs that take time as a parameter are not
impacted and they continue to pass time in mili seconds.
2. Timers would not be programmed in periodic mode
generating ticks. Instead they would be programmed in one
shot mode to generate events at the time the kernel scheduler
needs to gain control for its scheduling activities like
timers, timeouts, time slicing, idling etc.
3. The scheduler provides interfaces that the timer drivers
use to announce elapsed time and get the next time the scheduler
needs a timer event. It is possible that the scheduler may not
need another timer event, in which case the system would wait
for a non-timer event to wake it up if it is idling.
4. New APIs are defined to be implemented by timer drivers. Also
they need to handler timer events differently. These changes
have been done in the HPET timer driver. In future other timers
that support tickles kernel should implement these APIs as well.
These APIs are to re-program the timer, update and announce
elapsed time.
5. Philosopher and timer_api applications have been enabled to
test tickless kernel. Separate configuration files are created
which define the necessary CONFIG flags. Run these apps using
following command
make pristine && make BOARD=qemu_x86 CONF_FILE=prj_tickless.conf qemu
