Promote the private z_arch_* namespace, which specifies
the interface between the core kernel and the
architecture code, to a new top-level namespace named
arch_*.
This allows our documentation generation to create
online documentation for this set of interfaces,
and this set of interfaces is worth treating in a
more formal way anyway.

This commit refactors kernel and arch headers to establish a boundary
between private and public interface headers.
The refactoring strategy used in this commit is detailed in the issue
This commit introduces the following major changes:
1. Establish a clear boundary between private and public headers by
removing "kernel/include" and "arch/*/include" from the global
include paths. Ideally, only kernel/ and arch/*/ source files should
reference the headers in these directories. If these headers must be
used by a component, these include paths shall be manually added to
the CMakeLists.txt file of the component. This is intended to
discourage applications from including private kernel and arch
headers either knowingly and unknowingly.
- kernel/include/ (PRIVATE)
This directory contains the private headers that provide private
kernel definitions which should not be visible outside the kernel
and arch source code. All public kernel definitions must be added
to an appropriate header located under include/.
- arch/*/include/ (PRIVATE)
This directory contains the private headers that provide private
architecture-specific definitions which should not be visible
outside the arch and kernel source code. All public architecture-
specific definitions must be added to an appropriate header located
under include/arch/*/.
- include/ AND include/sys/ (PUBLIC)
This directory contains the public headers that provide public
kernel definitions which can be referenced by both kernel and
application code.
- include/arch/*/ (PUBLIC)
This directory contains the public headers that provide public
architecture-specific definitions which can be referenced by both
kernel and application code.
2. Split arch_interface.h into "kernel-to-arch interface" and "public
arch interface" divisions.
- kernel/include/kernel_arch_interface.h
* provides private "kernel-to-arch interface" definition.
* includes arch/*/include/kernel_arch_func.h to ensure that the
interface function implementations are always available.
* includes sys/arch_interface.h so that public arch interface
definitions are automatically included when including this file.
- arch/*/include/kernel_arch_func.h
* provides architecture-specific "kernel-to-arch interface"
implementation.
* only the functions that will be used in kernel and arch source
files are defined here.
- include/sys/arch_interface.h
* provides "public arch interface" definition.
* includes include/arch/arch_inlines.h to ensure that the
architecture-specific public inline interface function
implementations are always available.
- include/arch/arch_inlines.h
* includes architecture-specific arch_inlines.h in
include/arch/*/arch_inline.h.
- include/arch/*/arch_inline.h
* provides architecture-specific "public arch interface" inline
function implementation.
* supersedes include/sys/arch_inline.h.
3. Refactor kernel and the existing architecture implementations.
- Remove circular dependency of kernel and arch headers. The
following general rules should be observed:
* Never include any private headers from public headers
* Never include kernel_internal.h in kernel_arch_data.h
* Always include kernel_arch_data.h from kernel_arch_func.h
* Never include kernel.h from kernel_struct.h either directly or
indirectly. Only add the kernel structures that must be referenced
from public arch headers in this file.
- Relocate syscall_handler.h to include/ so it can be used in the
public code. This is necessary because many user-mode public codes
reference the functions defined in this header.
- Relocate kernel_arch_thread.h to include/arch/*/thread.h. This is
necessary to provide architecture-specific thread definition for
'struct k_thread' in kernel.h.
- Remove any private header dependencies from public headers using
the following methods:
* If dependency is not required, simply omit
* If dependency is required,
- Relocate a portion of the required dependencies from the
private header to an appropriate public header OR
- Relocate the required private header to make it public.
This commit supersedes #20047, addresses #19666, and fixes#3056.

Rename reserved function names in drivers/ subdirectory. Update
function macros concatenatenating function names with '##'. As
there is a conflict between the existing gpio_sch_manage_callback()
and _gpio_sch_manage_callback() names, leave the latter unmodified.

Update reserved function names starting with one underscore, replacing
them as follows:
'_k_' with 'z_'
'_K_' with 'Z_'
'_handler_' with 'z_handl_'
'_Cstart' with 'z_cstart'
'_Swap' with 'z_swap'
This renaming is done on both global and those static function names
in kernel/include and include/. Other static function names in kernel/
are renamed by removing the leading underscore. Other function names
not starting with any prefix listed above are renamed starting with
a 'z_' or 'Z_' prefix.
Function names starting with two or three leading underscores are not
automatcally renamed since these names will collide with the variants
with two or three leading underscores.
Various generator scripts have also been updated as well as perf,
linker and usb files. These are
drivers/serial/uart_handlers.c
include/linker/kobject-text.ld
kernel/include/syscall_handler.h
scripts/gen_kobject_list.py
scripts/gen_syscall_header.py

Rename timer driver API functions to be consistent. ADD DOCS TO THE
HEADER so implementations understand what the requirements are.
Remove some unused functions that don't need declarations here.
Also removes the per-platform #if's around the power control callback
in favor of a weak-linked noop function in the driver initialization
(adds a few bytes of code to default platforms -- we'll live, I
think).

The existing API had two almost identical functions: _set_time() and
_timer_idle_enter(). Both simply instruct the timer driver to set the
next timer interrupt expiration appropriately so that the call to
z_clock_announce() will be made at the requested number of ticks. On
most/all hardware, these should be implementable identically.
Unfortunately because they are specified differently, existing drivers
have implemented them in parallel.
Specify a new, unified, z_clock_set_timeout(). Document it clearly
for implementors. And provide a shim layer for legacy drivers that
will continue to use the old functions.
Note that this patch fixes an existing bug found by inspection: the
old call to _set_time() out of z_clock_announce() failed to test for
the "wait forever" case in the situation where clock_always_on is
true, meaning that a system that reached this point and then never set
another timeout would freeze its uptime clock incorrectly.

There were three separate "announce ticks" entry points exposed for
use by drivers. Unify them to just a single z_clock_announce()
function, making the "final" tick announcement the business of the
driver only, not the kernel.
Note the oddness with "_sys_idle_elapsed_ticks": this was a global
variable exposed by the kernel. But it was never actually used by the
kernel. It was updated and inspected only within the timer drivers,
and only so that it could be passed back to the kernel as the default
(actually hidden) argument to the announce function. Break this false
dependency by putting this variable into each timer driver
individually.

This just got turned into a function from a "variable" API, but
post-the-most-recent-patch it turns out to be degenerate anyway.
Everyone everywhere should always have been using the kconfig variable
directly, and it was only a weirdness in the tickless API that made it
confusing. Fix.
Signed-off-by: Andy Ross <andrew.j.ross@intel.com>
The existing API defined sys_clock_{hw_cycles,ticks}_per_sec as simple
"variables" to be shared, except that they were only real storage in
certain modes (the HPET driver, basically) and everywhere else they
were a build constant.
Properly, these should be an API defined by the timer driver (who
controls those rates) and consumed by the clock subsystem. So give
them function syntax as a stepping stone to get there.
Note that this also removes the deprecated variable
_sys_clock_us_per_tick rather than give it the same treatment.

On some architectures tick time cannot be expressed as integer
number of microseconds, introducing error in calculations using
sys_clock_us_per_tick variable.
This commit deprecates the sys_clock_us_per_tick variable and
replaces its usage by more precise calculations based on
sys_clock_hw_cycles_per_sec and sys_clock_ticks_per_sec.

Bugfix in the tickless mode part:
During _time_idle_exit it was not announcing to the kernel the
already passed silent ticks, but it was left for the tick interrupt
itself.
This did not cause any trouble so far as there was only the timer
interrupt in this board.
