Andrew Boie 42a2c96422 newlib: fix heap user mode access for MPU devices
MPU devices that enforce power-of-two alignment now
specify the size of the buffer used for the newlib heap.
This buffer will be properly aligned and a pointer
exposed in a kernel header, such that it can be added
to a user thread's memory domain configuration if
necessary.

MPU devices that don't have these restrictions allocate
the heap as normal.

In all cases, if an MPU/MMU region needs to be programmed,
the z_newlib_get_heap_bounds() API will return the necessary
information.

Given how precious MPU regions are, no automatic programming
of the MPU is done; applications will need to do this as
needed in their memory domain configurations.

On x86, the x86 MMU-specific code has been moved to arch/x86
using the new z_newlib_get_heap_bounds() API.

Fixes: #6814
