This is part of the core kernel -> architecture interface
and should have a leading prefix z_arch_.

There are not enough bits in k_thread.thread_state with SMP enabled,
and the field is (should be) private to the scheduler, anyway. So
move state bits to the _thread_arch where they belong.
While we're at it, refactor some offset data w/r/t _thread_arch
because it can be shared between 32- and 64-bit subarches.

Previously, context switching on x86 with memory protection
enabled involved walking the page tables, de-configuring all
the partitions in the outgoing thread's memory domain, and
then configuring all the partitions in the incoming thread's
domain, on a global set of page tables.
We now have a much faster design. Each thread has reserved in
its stack object a number of pages to store page directories
and page tables pertaining to the system RAM area. Each
thread also has a toplevel PDPT which is configured to use
the per-thread tables for system RAM, and the global tables
for the rest of the address space.
The result of this is on context switch, at most we just have
to update the CR3 register to the incoming thread's PDPT.
The x86_mmu_api test was making too many assumptions and has
been adjusted to work with the new design.

This data is subarchitecture-specific, so move it to ia32/
and add a layer of indirection at the architecture level.
