3f9d4752c6 doc: Add returning code conventions
Zephyr now uses codes from errno.h as the standard returning code for
all APIs. Since some code usages can be confusing or ambiguous, this
patch documents the conventions we are using to keep the returning code
usage consistent.

The document is based on the current mapping we have in device.h.

572e052379 doc: enforce 8-char tabs and 80-column width in coding standards
This will ensure uniformity in the future, but will require what code is
currently aligned on 4-char tabs to be reformated (basically the kernel
and arch code, and some other) to fit in 80 columns with 8-char tabs.
However, it will be more natural to developers used to 8-char tabs,
i.e. people used to work on Linux and other open source projects, which
is our audience, and will lower the barrier of entry.
