The sys_kernel tests have some loops that work only with 1 CPU
being active. So limits the number of CPUs to 1 even when SMP
is enabled. This also allows qemu_x86_64 to run, so remove it
from the exclude list.

The seasonal overhaul of test identifiers aligning the terms being used
and creating a structure. This is hopefully the last time we do this,
plan is to document the identifiers and enforce syntax.
The end-goal is to be able to generate a testsuite description from the
existing tests and sync it frequently with the testsuite in Testrail.

There are two set of code supporting x86_64: x86_64 using x32 ABI,
and x86 long mode, and this consolidates both into one x86_64
architecture and SoC supporting truly 64-bit mode.
() Removes the x86_64:x32 architecture and SoC, and replaces
them with the existing x86 long mode arch and SoC.
() Replace qemu_x86_64 with qemu_x86_long as qemu_x86_64.
() Updates samples and tests to remove reference to
qemu_x86_long.
() Renames CONFIG_X86_LONGMODE to CONFIG_X86_64.

And set qemu_x86_long board to build with CONFIG_SMP=y by default.
Apparently two benchmark tests - latency_measure and sys_kernel -
do not work with the SMP scheduler, so those tests are disabled.

This patch adds a x86_64 architecture and qemu_x86_64 board to Zephyr.
Only the basic architecture support needed to run 64 bit code is
added; no drivers are added, though a low-level console exists and is
wired to printk().
The support is built on top of a "X86 underkernel" layer, which can be
built in isolation as a unit test on a Linux host.
Limitations:
+ Right now the SDK lacks an x86_64 toolchain. The build will fall
back to a host toolchain if it finds no cross compiler defined,
which is tested to work on gcc 8.2.1 right now.
+ No x87/SSE/AVX usage is allowed. This is a stronger limitation than
other architectures where the instructions work from one thread even
if the context switch code doesn't support it. We are passing
-no-sse to prevent gcc from automatically generating SSE
instructions for non-floating-point purposes, which has the side
effect of changing the ABI. Future work to handle the FPU registers
will need to be combined with an "application" ABI distinct from the
kernel one (or just to require USERSPACE).
+ Paging is enabled (it has to be in long mode), but is a 1:1 mapping
of all memory. No MMU/USERSPACE support yet.
+ We are building with -mno-red-zone for stack size reasons, but this
is a valuable optimization. Enabling it requires automatic stack
switching, which requires a TSS, which means it has to happen after
MMU support.
+ The OS runs in 64 bit mode, but for compatibility reasons is
compiled to the 32 bit "X32" ABI. So while the full 64 bit
registers and instruction set are available, C pointers are 32 bits
long and Zephyr is constrained to run in the bottom 4G of memory.

This will prepare test cases and samples with metadata and information
that will be consumed by the sanitycheck script which will be changed to
parse YAML files instead of ini.
