There is an effort underway to make most of the Zephyr build script's
reentrant. Meaning, the build scripts can be executed multiple times
during the same CMake invocation.
Reentrancy enables several use-cases, the motivating one is the
ability to build several Zephyr executables, or images, for instance a
bootloader and an application.
For build scripts to be reentrant they cannot be directly referencing
global variables, like target names, but must instead reference
variables, which can vary from entry to entry.
Therefore, in this patch, we replace global targets with variables.

Running tests compiled for 64bit architecture were causing errors
in logger module. Updated unittest.cmake to build tests only
for 32bit architecture.

Adding a new kernel object type or driver subsystem requires changes
in various different places. This patch makes it easier to create
those devices by generating as much as possible in compile time.
No behavior change.

It is supported to add give extra flags to the linker from the
commandline like this:
cmake -DEXTRA_LDFLAGS=-Lmy_dir path
But unfortunately this was broken during the CMake
migration. Interestingly, the reason that it was broken is that KBuild
was also partially broken. KBuild would pass on EXTRA_LDFLAGS when
object files were linked together into built-in.o files, but it would
not use EXTRA_LDFLAGS for the final link into an elf file.
This patch fixes EXTRA_LDFLAGS.

Introducing CMake is an important step in a larger effort to make
Zephyr easy to use for application developers working on different
platforms with different development environment needs.
Simplified, this change retains Kconfig as-is, and replaces all
Makefiles with CMakeLists.txt. The DSL-like Make language that KBuild
offers is replaced by a set of CMake extentions. These extentions have
either provided simple one-to-one translations of KBuild features or
introduced new concepts that replace KBuild concepts.
This is a breaking change for existing test infrastructure and build
scripts that are maintained out-of-tree. But for FW itself, no porting
should be necessary.
For users that just want to continue their work with minimal
disruption the following should suffice:
Install CMake 3.8.2+
Port any out-of-tree Makefiles to CMake.
Learn the absolute minimum about the new command line interface:
$ cd samples/hello_world
$ mkdir build && cd build
$ cmake -DBOARD=nrf52_pca10040 ..
$ cd build
$ make
