The struct _caller_saved is not used. Most architectures put
automatically the registers onto stack, in others architectures the
exception code does it.

The legacy struct s_coopFloatReg was never being used, though it was
an empty struct (not wasting space), some symbols were being generate
for it.
Nevertheless, neither C99 nor C11 allow empty structs, so this
was also a violation to the C standards.

Speculative execution side channel attacks can read the
entire FPU/SIMD register state on affected Intel Core
processors, see CVE-2018-3665.
We now have two options for managing floating point
context between threads on x86: CONFIG_EAGER_FP_SHARING
and CONFIG_LAZY_FP_SHARING.
The mitigation is to unconditionally save/restore these
registers on context switch, instead of the lazy sharing
algorithm used by CONFIG_LAZY_FP_SHARING.

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
kernel/include/syscall_handler.h
scripts/gen_kobject_list.py
scripts/gen_syscall_header.py

struct k_thread already has a pointer type k_tid_t, there is no need for
this definition to tcs.
Less symbols/names make the code cleaner and more readable.

Any word started with underscore followed by and uppercase letter or a
second underscore is a reserved word according with C99.

This feature is X86 only and is not used or being tested. It is legacy
feature and no one can prove it actually works. Remove it until we have
proper documentation and samples and multi architecture support.

Some our Zephyr tools don't like seeing UTF-8 characters, as reported in
issue #4131) so a quick scan and replace for UTF-8 characters in .rst,
.h, and Kconfig files using "file --mime-encoding" (excluding the /ext
folders) finds these files to tweak.

Historically, space for struct k_thread was always carved out of the
thread's stack region. However, we want more control on where this data
will reside; in memory protection scenarios the stack may only be used
for actual stack data and nothing else.
On some platforms (particularly ARM), including kernel_arch_data.h from
the toplevel kernel.h exposes intractable circular dependency issues.
We create a new per-arch header "kernel_arch_thread.h" with very limited
scope; it only defines the three data structures necessary to instantiate
the arch-specific bits of a struct k_thread.
