Make `struct arch_esf` compulsory for all architectures by
declaring it in the `arch_interface.h` header.
After this commit, the named struct `z_arch_esf_t` is only used
internally to generate offsets, and is slated to be removed
from the `arch_interface.h` header in the future.

The interface to flush fpu is not unique to one architecture, make it a
generic, optional interface that can be implemented (and overriden) by a
platform.

Add safe exception stack init function which does several things:
1) setting current cpu safe exception stack pointer to its corresponding
stack top.
2) init sp_el0 with the above safe exception stack.
That makes sure the sp_el0 points to per-cpu safe_stack in the kernel
space.
3) init the current_stack_limit and corrupted_sp with 0

It is not necessary to go through the full exception exit code.
This is simpler, smaller and faster.

every context switch. Performance numbers from tests/benchmarks/sched:

After:

Include the new introduced include/arch/arm64/mm.h instead of the
arm_mmu.h or arm_mpu.h.
Unify function names z_arm64_thread_pt_init/z_arm64_swap_ptables with
z_arm64_thread_mem_domains_init/z_arm64_swap_mem_domains for mmu and
mpu, because:
1. mmu and mpu have almost the same logic.
2. mpu doesn't have ptables.
3. using the function names help reducing "#if define" macros.
Similarly, change z_arm64_ptable_ipi to z_arm64_domain_sync_ipi
And fix a log bug in arm_mmu.c.

This adds FPU sharing support with a lazy context switching algorithm.
Every thread is allowed to use FPU/SIMD registers. In fact, the compiler
may insert FPU reg accesses in anycontext to optimize even non-FP code
unless the -mgeneral-regs-only compiler flag is used, but Zephyr
currently doesn't support such a build.
It is therefore possible to do FP access in IRS as well with this patch
although IRQs are then disabled to prevent nested IRQs in such cases.
Because the thread object grows in size, some tests have to be adjusted.

The ARM64 port is currently using SP_EL0 for everything: kernel threads,
user threads and exceptions. In addition when taking an exception the
exception code is still using the thread SP without relying on any
interrupt stack.
If from one hand this makes the context switch really quick because the
thread context is already on the thread stack so we have only to save
one register (SP) for the whole context, on the other hand the major
limitation introduced by this choice is that if for some reason the
thread SP is corrupted or pointing to some unaccessible location (for
example in case of stack overflow), the exception code is unable to
recover or even deal with it.
The usual way of dealing with this kind of problems is to use a
dedicated interrupt stack on SP_EL1 when servicing the exceptions. The
real drawback of this is that, in case of context switch, all the
context must be copied from the shared interrupt stack into a
thread-specific stack or structure, so it is really slow.
We use here an hybrid approach, sacrificing a bit of stack space for a
quicker context switch. While nothing really changes for kernel threads,
for user threads we now use the privileged stack (already present to
service syscalls) as interrupt stack.
When an exception arrives the code now switches to use SP_EL1 that for
user threads is always pointing inside the privileged portion of the
stack of the current running thread. This achieves two things: (1)
isolate exceptions and syscall code to use a stack that is isolated,
privileged and not accessible to user threads and (2) the thread SP is
not touched at all during exceptions, so it can be invalid or corrupted
without any direct consequence.

Split ARM and ARM64 architectures.
Details:
- CONFIG_ARM64 is decoupled from CONFIG_ARM (not a subset anymore)
- Arch and include AArch64 files are in a dedicated directory
(arch/arm64 and include/arch/arm64)
- AArch64 boards and SoC are moved to soc/arm64 and boards/arm64
- AArch64-specific DTS files are moved to dts/arm64
- The A72 support for the bcm_vk/viper board is moved in the
boards/bcm_vk/viper directory
