This adds a function k_object_is_valid() to check if a kernel
object exists, of certain type, and has been initialized.
This replaces the same (or very similar) code that has been
copied from kernel into the network subsystem.

The k_object API associates mutable state structures with known kernel
objects to support userspace. The kernel objects themselves are not
modified by the API, and in some cases (e.g. device structures) may be
const-qualified. Update the API so that pointers to these const
kernel objects can be passed without casting away the const qualifier.

We now have a low-level function z_dynamic_object_create()
which is not a system call and is used for installing
kernel objects that are not supported by k_object_alloc().
Checking for valid object type enumeration values moved
completely to the implementation function.
A few debug messages and comments were improved.
Futexes and sys_mutexes are now properly excluded from
dynamic generation.

System call arguments, at the arch layer, are single words. So
passing wider values requires splitting them into two registers at
call time. This gets even more complicated for values (e.g
k_timeout_t) that may have different sizes depending on configuration.
This patch adds a feature to gen_syscalls.py to detect functions with
wide arguments and automatically generates code to split/unsplit them.
Unfortunately the current scheme of Z_SYSCALL_DECLARE_* macros won't
work with functions like this, because for N arguments (our current
maximum N is 10) there are 2^N possible configurations of argument
widths. So this generates the complete functions for each handler and
wrapper, effectively doing in python what was originally done in the
preprocessor.
Another complexity is that traditional the z_hdlr_*() function for a
system call has taken the raw list of word arguments, which does not
work when some of those arguments must be 64 bit types. So instead of
using a single Z_SYSCALL_HANDLER macro, this splits the job of
z_hdlr_*() into two steps: An automatically-generated unmarshalling
function, z_mrsh_*(), which then calls a user-supplied verification
function z_vrfy_*(). The verification function is typesafe, and is a
simple C function with exactly the same argument and return signature
as the syscall impl function. It is also not responsible for
validating the pointers to the extra parameter array or a wide return
value, that code gets automatically generated.
This commit includes new vrfy/msrh handling for all syscalls invoked
during CI runs. Future commits will port the less testable code.

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

The various macros to do checks in system call handlers all
implictly would generate a kernel oops if a check failed.
This is undesirable for a few reasons:
* System call handlers that acquire resources in the handler
have no good recourse for cleanup if a check fails.
* In some cases we may want to propagate a return value back
to the caller instead of just killing the calling thread,
even though the base API doesn't do these checks.
These macros now all return a value, if nonzero is returned
the check failed. K_OOPS() now wraps these calls to generate
a kernel oops.
At the moment, the policy for all APIs has not changed. They
still all oops upon a failed check/
The macros now use the Z_ notation for private APIs.

Dynamic kernel objects no longer is hard-coded to use the kernel
heap. Instead, objects will now be drawn from the calling thread's
resource pool.
Since we now have a reference counting mechanism, if an object
loses all its references and it was dynamically allocated, it will
be automatically freed.
A parallel dlist is added for efficient iteration over the set of
all dynamic objects, allowing deletion during iteration.

Forthcoming patches will dual-purpose an object's permission
bitfield as also reference tracking for kernel objects, used to
handle automatic freeing of resources.
We do not want to allow user thread A to revoke thread B's access
to some object O if B is in the middle of an API call using O.
However we do want to allow threads to revoke their own access to
an object, so introduce a new API and syscall for that.

Kernel object metadata had an extra data field added recently to
store bounds for stack objects. Use this data field to assign
IDs to thread objects at build time. This has numerous advantages:
* Threads can be granted permissions on kernel objects before the
thread is initialized. Previously, it was necessary to call
k_thread_create() with a K_FOREVER delay, assign permissions, then
start the thread. Permissions are still completely cleared when
a thread exits.
* No need for runtime logic to manage thread IDs
* Build error if CONFIG_MAX_THREAD_BYTES is set too low

This is too powerful for user mode, the other access APIs
require explicit permissions on the threads that are being
granted access.
The API is no longer exposed as a system call and hence will
only be usable by supervisor threads.

It's currently too easy to run out of thread IDs as they
are never re-used on thread exit.
Now the kernel maintains a bitfield of in-use thread IDs,
updated on thread creation and termination. When a thread
exits, the permission bitfield for all kernel objects is
updated to revoke access for that retired thread ID, so that
a new thread re-using that ID will not gain access to objects
that it should not have.
Because of these runtime updates, setting the permission
bitmap for an object to all ones for a "public" object doesn't
work properly any more; a flag is now set for this instead.

Does the opposite of k_object_access_grant(); the provided thread will
lose access to that kernel object.
If invoked from userspace the caller must hace sufficient access
to that object and permission on the thread being revoked access.

permission on the thread parameter is needed as well.
