This used to be part of the "restore always" set of registers because
__swap was expected to return a value. No longer required, so RAX is
moved to the volatile registers and we save a few cycles occasionally.

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.

k_thread.thread_state (or rather, _thread_base.thread_state) should be
private to the kernel/scheduler, so flags previously stored there are
moved to _thread_arch where the belong.

This is a naive implementation which does "eager" context switching
for floating-point context, which, of course, introduces performance
concerns. Other approaches have security concerns, SMP implications,
and impact the x86 arch and Zephyr project as a whole. Discussion is
needed, so punting with the straightforward solution for now.

First "complete" version of Intel64 support for x86. Compilation of
apps for supported boards (read: up_squared) with CONFIG_X86_LONGMODE=y
is now working. Booting, device drivers, interrupts, scheduling, etc.
appear to be functioning properly. Beware that this is ALHPA quality,
not ready for production use, but the port has advanced far enough that
it's time to start working through the test suite and samples, fleshing
out any missing features, and squashing bugs.
