Fleshes out the prototype heap memory pool support
to make it fully operational. Noteworthy changes are
listed below:
Tweaks arguments to k_malloc() and k_free() to be more like
malloc() and free(). Similarly, modifies k_free() to take
no action when passed a NULL pointer.
Now stores the complete block descriptor at the start
of any block allocated from the heap memory pool. This
increases memory overhead by 4 bytes per block, but
streamlines the allocation and freeing algorithms. It also
ensures that the routines will work if the block descriptor
internals are changed in the future.
Now allows the heap memory pool to be defined using the
HEAP_MEM_POOL_SIZE configuration option. This will be the
official configuration approach in the unified kernel.
Also allows the heap memory pool to be defined using the
(undocumented) HEAP_SIZE entry in the MDEF. This is provided
for legacy reasons only.
Co-locates memory pool initialization code to keep the line
that causes memory pool initialization to be done during booting
right next to the routine that does the initialization.

Since the unified kernel's build system doesn't properly handle
a file in the 'legacy' directory if it contains an initialization
function, some legacy code can't be located there. To avoid confusion,
the revised convention for legacy code is to keep any file that
contains only legacy code in the main kernel directory, and to give
it a "legacy_" prefix.

Ensures that all APIs which accept a timeout value wait for at least
the specified amount of time, and do not time out prematurely.
* The kernel now waits for the next system clock tick to occur before
the timeout interval is considered to have started. (That is, the only
way to ensure a delay of N tick intervals is to wait for N+1 ticks
to occur.)
* Gets rid of ticks -> milliseconds -> ticks conversion in task_sleep()
and fiber_sleep() legacy APIs, since this introduces rounding that
-- coupled with the previous change -- can alter the number of ticks
being requested during the sleep operation.
* Corrects work queue API that was incorrectly shown to use a delay
measured in ticks, rather than milliseconds.

Provides users with a more compact and intuitive API for kernel
timers.
Provides legacy support for microkernel timers and nanokernel
timers by building on the new kernel timer infrastructure.
Each timer type requires only a small amount of additional
wrapper code, as well as the addition of a single pointer
field to the underlying timer structure, all of which will be
easily removed when support for the legacy APIs is discontinued.

Reverts a change that was made to the defragmentation routine
when memory pool support was ported from the microkernel to the
unified kernel.
The change was intended to improve the readability of the algorithm,
but introduced a subtle change in behavior. For example, when
k and i are zero and the number of block set entries is one
the original algorithm did not execute the while loop, while the
revised algorithm executed the loop once.

Build breaks when enabling CONFIG_NEWLIB_LIBC because it has its own
sched.h file.
This is a bad symptom of a greater issue: the build system passes many
'-I<path>' options to the compiler, and that allows including header
files by simply specifying their names (when located somewhere else than
<zephyr>/include/) and can cause clashes when several files in different
locations have the same name, like in this case.
Fixes ZEP-1062.

When adding a thread to the ready queue, it is often known at that time
if the thread added will be the next one to run or not. So, instead of
simply updating the ready queues and the bitmask, also cache what that
thread is, so that when the scheduler is invoked, it can simply fetch it
from there. This is only done if there is a thread in the cache, since
the way the cache is updated is by comparing the priorities of the
thread being added and the cached thread.
When a thread is removed from the ready queue, if it is currently the
cached thread, it is also removed from the cache. The cache is not
updated at this time, since this would be a preemptive fetching that
could be overriden before the newly cached thread would even be
scheduled in.
Finally, when a thread is scheduled in, it now becomes the cached thread
since the fact that it is running means that by definition it was the
next one to run.
Doing this can speed up considerably some context switch times,
especially when a thread is preempted by an interrupt and the same
thread is scheduled when the interrupt exits.
