For systems with userspace, the sys_sem exist in user memory working
as counter semaphore for user mode thread. The implemention of sys_sem
is based on k_futex. And the majority of the synchronization operations
are performed in user mode to reduce the calling of system call.
And for systems without userspace enabled, sys_sem behaves like k_sem.
Fixes: #15139.

Add a generic API to provide the inverse operation for gmtime and as a
home for future generic time-related functions that are not in POSIX.

Update the files which contain no license information with the
'Apache-2.0' SPDX license identifier. Many source files in the tree are
missing licensing information, which makes it harder for compliance
tools to determine the correct license.
By default all files without license information are under the default
license of Zephyr, which is Apache version 2.

For systems without userspace enabled, these work the same
as a k_mutex.
For systems with userspace, the sys_mutex may exist in user
memory. It is still tracked as a kernel object, but has an
underlying k_mutex that is looked up in the kernel object
table.
Future enhancements will optimize sys_mutex to not require
syscalls for uncontended sys_mutexes, using atomic ops
instead.

Replaced forever loop in assert with call to a function.
In post_assert_action() function, k_panic is called.
Forever loop was preventing logs to be printed and had behavior
ependent on the context (low prioriy thread - system continue to
ork, irq - system is blocked).

lib/ was starting to get messy and inconsitent. Files being either
dumped in the root or in sub-directories without a clear plan.
Move all library components into one single folder and call it 'os'.
