This initial batch of documentation describes policies and
mechanism related to kernel objects and system calls.
Some details on porting user mode to a new arch have been
provided in the architecture porting guide.
Thread documentation updated with some user mode consideration.
This is not the final documentation, more to come in subsequent
patches.

doc/kernel/overview/changes.rst contains information about changes from
kernel release 1.5 ("Version 1 Kernel") to the combined "Version 2
Kernel" and doc/porting/application.rst talked about how to change
applications using Version 1 interfaces to the Version 2 interface.
This information remains in the online tagged versions of the
documentation, but it's time to remove this from the current
documentation set. (Also removing example porting code.)
Fixes issue #1524

The headings on some .rst files were not following the expected
heading order of using # for h1, * for h2, = for h3, and - for h4
This patch fixes that, and the doc/templates/*.tmpl files created
for folks to use as templates for creating board and sample docs.

Replace the existing Apache 2.0 boilerplate header with an SPDX tag
throughout the zephyr code tree. This patch was generated via a
script run over the master branch.
Also updated doc/porting/application.rst that had a dependency on
line numbers in a literal include.
Manually updated subsys/logging/sys_log.c that had a malformed
header in the original file. Also cleanup several cases that already
had a SPDX tag and we either got a duplicate or missed updating.

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.

Interrupt stubs now just push the ISR and parameter onto the stack
and jump to the common interrupt code, never to return.
