Benjamin Walsh c3a2bbba16 kernel: add k_cpu_idle/k_cpu_atomic_idle()
nano_cpu_idle/nano_cpu_atomic_idle were not ported to the unified
kernel, and only the old APIs were available. There was no real impact
since, in the unified kernel, only the idle thread should really be
doing power management. However, with a single-threaded kernel, these
functions can be useful again.

The kernel internals now make use of these APIs instead of the legacy
ones.

Title: Kernel Event Logger Sample

Description:

This sample uses the philosopher sample with two additional tasks to show the
profiling data on different system's states. The fork manager task controls the
fork's availibilty. The worker task performs intermitently heavy processing,
allowing or preventing the system to go idle.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Building and Running Project:

This microkernel project outputs to the console. It can be built and executed
on QEMU as follows:

    make qemu

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Troubleshooting:

Problems caused by out-dated project information can be addressed by
issuing one of the following commands then rebuilding the project:

    make clean          # discard results of previous builds
                        # but keep existing configuration info
or
    make pristine       # discard results of previous builds
                        # and restore pre-defined configuration info


Problems with QEMU on ARM:
Qemu v2.1 for ARM platform do not support tickless idle. If run the sample
project in QEMU with the CONFIG_TICKLESS_IDLE option enabled, the project
could present an erratic behaviour.
