The Kernel code relocation example does not work, as the kernel
contains early initialization code that executes before code
relocation takes place

When using the code and data relocation feature, every relocated symbol
would be marked with `KEEP()` in the generated linker script. Therefore,
if any input files contained unused code, then it wouldn't be discarded
by the linker, even when invoked with `--gc-sections`.
This can cause unexpected bloat, or other link-time issues stemming from
some symbols being discarded and others not.
On the other hand, this behavior has been present since the feature's
introduction, so it should remain default for the users who rely on it.
This patch introduces support for `zephyr_code_relocate(... NOKEEP)`.
This will suppress the generation of `KEEP()` statements for all symbols
in a particular library or set of files.
Much like `NOCOPY`, the `NOKEEP` flag is passed to `gen_relocate_app.py`
in string form. The script is now equipped to handle multiple such flags
when passed from CMake as a semicolon-separated list, like so:
"SRAM2:NOCOPY;NOKEEP:/path/to/file1.c;/path/to/file2.c"
Documentation and tests are updated here as well.

This commit follows the parent commit work.
This commit introduces the following major changes.
1. Move all directories and files in 'include/zephyr/arch/arm/aarch32'
to the 'include/zephyr/arch/arm' directory.
2. Change the path string which is influenced by the changement 1.

Update usage of zephyr_code_relocate to new API, and add examples of
relocating a library target, as well as using multiple files in list or
CMake generator expressions.
