PRIMARY, SECONDARY, NANOKERNEL, MICROKERNEL init levels are now
deprecated.
New init levels introduced: PRE_KERNEL_1, PRE_KERNEL_2, POST_KERNEL
to replace them.
Most existing code has instances of PRIMARY replaced with PRE_KERNEL_1,
SECONDARY with POST_KERNEL as SECONDARY has had a longstanding bug
where the documentation specified SECONDARY ran before the kernel started
up, but actually ran afterwards.

Event is such an overloaded and generic term (event logger, *kernel*
event logger, "protocol" events in other subsystems, etc.), that it is
confusing for the name an object. Events are kinda like signals, but not
exactly, so we chose not to name them 'signals' to prevent further
confusion. "Alerts" felt like a good fit, since they are used to "alert"
an application that something of significance should be addressed and
because an "alert handler" can be proactively registered with an alert.

The bt_driver API was created when Zephyr only had a Bluetooth host
stack, but no controller-side functionality. The only "driver" that
was needed for the host was the HCI driver, and hence "HCI" was
omitted from the name.
With support both for host and controller Zephyr will be getting more
Bluetooth driver types, in particular radio drivers. To prepare for
this, move all HCI drivers to drivers/bluetooth/hci/ and rename the
bt_driver API bt_hci_driver.
