This initial batch of documentation describes policies and
mechanism related to kernel objects and system calls.
Some details on porting user mode to a new arch have been
provided in the architecture porting guide.
Thread documentation updated with some user mode consideration.
This is not the final documentation, more to come in subsequent
patches.

Now that net_buf has "native" support for sys_slist_t in the form of
the sys_snode_t member, there's a danger people will forget to clear
out buf->frags when getting buffers from a list directly with
sys_slist_get(). This is analogous to the reason why we have
net_buf_get/put APIs instead of using k_fifo_get/put.

This should clear up some of the confusion with random number
generators and drivers that obtain entropy from the hardware. Also,
many hardware number generators have limited bandwidth, so it's natural
for their output to be only used for seeding a random number generator.

Adding NET_MGMT_DEFINE_REQUEST_HANDLER to the doxygen configuration
list of pre-defined macros eliminates 800 lines of "expected" warning
messages from the document generation output. Generated API docs
are unchanged. Cool.
Remember this if/when other macros pop up as a problem for the
doxygen/breathe/sphinx API generation tools.

The predefined macro list for doxygen processing had a typo error
causing __attribute__(x) to not be handled correctly.
kernel.h was recently updated to include use of
__attribute__((sentinel)) and doxygen wasn't happy about
processing the API doc comments for the affected function.
Also added a couple of other predefined macros used in Zephyr.

ZOAP library has certain limitations in parsing and preparation of
coap messages. It can handle only on single network fragment. If
network packet is split between multiple fragments it fails. This
patch is just copy and rename of 'zoap' to 'coap'.

The MSYS2 installer does not include an updated version of the package
database, so users need to update it first in order to install all of
the required dependencies. Additionally, the repo must be cloned before
being able to install the Python requirements.

doc/kernel/overview/changes.rst contains information about changes from
kernel release 1.5 ("Version 1 Kernel") to the combined "Version 2
Kernel" and doc/porting/application.rst talked about how to change
applications using Version 1 interfaces to the Version 2 interface.
This information remains in the online tagged versions of the
documentation, but it's time to remove this from the current
documentation set. (Also removing example porting code.)

Add the following application-facing memory domain APIs:
k_mem_domain_init() - to initialize a memory domain
k_mem_domain_destroy() - to destroy a memory domain
k_mem_domain_add_partition() - to add a partition into a domain
k_mem_domain_remove_partition() - to remove a partition from a domain
k_mem_domain_add_thread() - to add a thread into a domain
k_mem_domain_remove_thread() - to remove a thread from a domain
A memory domain would contain some number of memory partitions.
A memory partition is a memory region (might be RAM, peripheral
registers, flash...) with specific attributes (access permission,
e.g. privileged read/write, unprivileged read-only, execute never...).
Memory partitions would be defined by set of MPU regions or MMU tables
underneath.
A thread could only belong to a single memory domain any point in time
but a memory domain could contain multiple threads.
Threads in the same memory domain would have the same access permission
to the memory partitions belong to the memory domain.
The memory domain APIs are used by unprivileged threads to share data
to the threads in the same memory and protect sensitive data from
threads outside their domain. It is not only for improving the security
but also useful for debugging (unexpected access would cause exception).

To define a system call, it's now sufficient to simply tag the inline
prototype with "__syscall" or "__syscall_inline" and include a special
generated header at the end of the header file.
The system call dispatch table and enumeration of system call IDs is now
automatically generated.

The doxygen/sphinx/breathe processing for API documentation has some
known issues and we've been using a post-processing filter to eliminate
"expected" warnings. Sphinx/Breathe 5.0 was updated to support
identifying attributes causing these warnings, so this PR adds a
starting list to get around warnings recently introduced with __syscall
and __syscall_inline (PR #4103).

Because of known issues with Sphinx/Breathe tools we're using to
generate doxygen-based comments for our API documentation, we're getting
a bevy of warning messages written out. As a workaround for our CI
system, we created a filter-known-issues.py script to remove "expected"
warnings from the output.
This patch moves calling that filter script into the doc generation
Makefile so folks making local builds of the docs won't be tripped up by
all the warning messages either. Output of the "make htmldocs" command
is now filtered so only "unexpected" errors and warnings will be shown.
(See https://github.com/sphinx-doc/sphinx/issue/2682 and
sphinx-doc/sphinx#2683i for the Sphinx/Breathe issues.)

Doxygen-generated API documentation had the ability to
group API information into sections based on the class
of items: Defines, Typedefs, Enums, Functions and then
alphabetized with these groups. By removing the
Breathe directive :content-only: we can get these class
groupings back (instead of having items just sorted
alphabetically across all classes), and also allow @name
groups to be defined for creating and displaying additional
groups (as requested by a developer).
