_Swap() is defined in nano_internal.h. Everything calls _Swap().
Pretty much nothing that called _Swap() included nano_internal.h,
expecting it to be picked up automatically through other headers (as
it happened, from the kernel arch-specific include file). A new
_Swap() is going to need some other symbols in the inline definition,
so I needed to break that cycle. Now nothing sees _Swap() defined
anymore. Put nano_internal.h everywhere it's needed.
Our kernel includes remain a big awful yucky mess. This makes things
more correct but no less ugly. Needs cleanup.

Currently this is defined as a k_thread_stack_t pointer.
However this isn't correct, stacks are defined as arrays. Extern
references to k_thread_stack_t doesn't work properly as the compiler
treats it as a pointer to the stack array and not the array itself.
Declaring as an unsized array of k_thread_stack_t doesn't work
well either. The least amount of confusion is to leave out the
pointer/array status completely, use pointers for function prototypes,
and define K_THREAD_STACK_EXTERN() to properly create an extern
reference.
The definitions for all functions and struct that use
k_thread_stack_t need to be updated, but code that uses them should
be unchanged.

In various places, a private _thread_entry_t, or the full prototype
were being used. Be consistent and use the same typedef everywhere.

Historically, stacks were just character buffers and could be treated
as such if the user wanted to look inside the stack data, and also
declared as an array of the desired stack size.
This is no longer the case. Certain architectures will create a memory
region much larger to account for MPU/MMU guard pages. Unfortunately,
the kernel interfaces treat both the declared stack, and the valid
stack buffer within it as the same char * data type, even though these
absolutely cannot be used interchangeably.
We introduce an opaque k_thread_stack_t which gets instantiated by
K_THREAD_STACK_DECLARE(), this is no longer treated by the compiler
as a character pointer, even though it really is.
To access the real stack buffer within, the result of
K_THREAD_STACK_BUFFER() can be used, which will return a char * type.
This should catch a bunch of programming mistakes at build time:
- Declaring a character array outside of K_THREAD_STACK_DECLARE() and
passing it to K_THREAD_CREATE
- Directly examining the stack created by K_THREAD_STACK_DECLARE()
which is not actually the memory desired and may trigger a CPU
exception

Unline k_thread_spawn(), the struct k_thread can live anywhere and not
in the thread's stack region. This will be useful for memory protection
scenarios where private kernel structures for a thread are not
accessible by that thread, or we want to allow the thread to use all the
stack space we gave it.
This requires a change to the internal _new_thread() API as we need to
provide a separate pointer for the k_thread.
By default, we still create internal threads with the k_thread in stack
memory. Forthcoming patches will change this, but we first need to make
it easier to define k_thread memory of variable size depending on
whether we need to store coprocessor state or not.

We do the same thing on all arch's right now for thread_monitor_init so
lets put it in a common place. This also should fix an issue on xtensa
when thread monitor can be enabled (reference to _nanokernel.threads).

We do a bit of the same stuff on all the arch's to setup a new thread.
So lets put that code in a common place so we unify it for everyone and
reduce some duplicated code.

Convert code to use u{8,16,32,64}_t and s{8,16,32,64}_t instead of C99
integer types. There are few places we dont convert over to the new
types because of compatiability with ext/HALs or for ease of transition
at this point. Fixup a few of the PRI formatters so we build with newlib.

This commit should fix the concern about uninitialized memory of main
thread that was raised in https://gerrit.zephyrproject.org/r/#/c/12920/
The issue is more general, if it happens that the content of the
CPENABLE flag of any thread is set then any other thread using the CP
may cause a memory corruption.
I'd prefer to avoid the issue by initializing the CP descriptor to 0.
The descriptor itself is few words. We set them to 0 up to CP_ASA, which
is set to a real value.
As the dummy thread instantiated at the kernel startup does not use CP,
there is no CP area in its thread memory buffer. However it is mandatory
that it have the CP descriptor and that cpEnable in that descripot is
set to null. This is ensured by adding XT_CP_DESCR_SIZE to
_K_THREAD_NO_FLOAT_SIZEOF.

The CP context area was before on the bottom of the stack just
after the thread descriptor. Now it is moved inside the thread
descriptor to support some kind of memory protection.

The function _new_thread sets the CALLINC for _thread_entry when calling the
new thread entry point. This should be CALLINC(1) (call4) instead of previous
one CALLINC(2) (call8).
This change allows resolving a crash when starting the first thread.
