Wayne Ren b829bc78c1 arch: arc: refactor the arc stack check support
* the original stack check codes have no consideration
  for userspace case. This will wrong cause possible stack
  check exception.
* this commit refactors the arc stack check support to
  support the usperspace.

* this commit fixes #7885. All the failed tests in #7885
  are run again to verify this commit. The test results are ok

Wayne Ren f81dee0b2b arch: arc: add user space support for arc
* add the implementation of syscall
  * based on 'trap_s' intruction, id = 3
* add the privilege stack
  * the privilege stack is allocted with thread stack
  * for the kernel thread, the privilege stack is also a
    part of thread stack, the start of stack can be configured
    as stack guard
  * for the user thread, no stack guard, when the user stack is
    overflow, it will fall into kernel memory area which requires
    kernel privilege, privilege violation will be raised
* modify the linker template and add MPU_ADDR_ALIGN
* add user space corresponding codes in mpu
* the user sp aux reg will be part of thread context
* When user thread is interruptted for the 1st time, the context is
  saved in user stack (U bit of IRQ_CTLR is set to 1). When nest
  interrupt comes, the context is saved in thread's privilege stack
* the arc_mpu_regions.c is moved to board folder, as it's board
  specific
* the above codes have been tested through tests/kernel/mem_protect/
  userspace for MPU version 2

Anas Nashif 780324b8ed cleanup: rename fiber/task -> thread
We still have many places talking about tasks and threads, replace those
with thread terminology.

Andrew Boie 9175d20ceb arc: fix CONFIG_ARC_STACK_CHECKING
- There's no clear need to disable frame pointers if this feature is
used, remove this directive.
- The 'top' and 'base' terms are reversed. The 'base' is the high
address of the stack. The top is the lowest address, where we cannot
push further down. Fixup member and offset names to correspond to how
these terms are used in hardware documentation.
- Use correct pointers for stack top location
- Fatal exceptions now go through _NanoFatalErrorHandler to report the
faulting ip and thread.

Andrew Boie 73abd32a7d kernel: expose struct k_thread implementation
Historically, space for struct k_thread was always carved out of the
thread's stack region. However, we want more control on where this data
will reside; in memory protection scenarios the stack may only be used
for actual stack data and nothing else.

On some platforms (particularly ARM), including kernel_arch_data.h from
the toplevel kernel.h exposes intractable circular dependency issues.
We create a new per-arch header "kernel_arch_thread.h" with very limited
scope; it only defines the three data structures necessary to instantiate
the arch-specific bits of a struct k_thread.
