This is preparation to use kernel stack for everything when the user
process enters the kernel. Now the user stack is in use when the user
process runs a system call, which might not be the safest option.
There is currently a big problem in the address environment handling which
is that the address environment is released too soon when the process is
exiting. The current MMU mappings will always be the exiting process's, which means
the system needs them AT LEAST until the next context switch happens. If
the next thread is a kernel thread, the address environment is needed for
longer.
Kernel threads "lend" the address environment of the previous user process.
This is beneficial in two ways:
- The kernel processes do not need an allocated address environment
- When a context switch happens from user -> kernel or kernel -> kernel,
the TLB does not need to be flushed. This must be done only when
changing to a different user address environment.
Another issue is when a new process is created; the address environment
of the new process must be temporarily instantiated by up_addrenv_select().
However, the system scheduler does not know that the process has a different
address environment to its own and when / if a context restore happens, the
wrong MMU page directory is restored and the process will either crash or
do something horribly wrong.
The following changes are needed to fix the issues:
- Add mm_curr which is the current address environment of the process
- Add a reference counter to safeguard the address environment
- Whenever an address environment is mapped to MMU, its reference counter
is incremented
- Whenever and address environment is unmapped from MMU, its reference
counter is decremented, and tested. If no more references -> drop the
address environment and release the memory as well
- To limit the context switch delay, the address environment is freed in
a separate low priority clean-up thread (LPWORK)
- When a process temporarily instantiates another process's address
environment, the scheduler will now know of this and will restore the
correct mappings to MMU
Why is this not causing more noticeable issues ? The problem only happens
under the aforementioned special conditions, and if a context switch or
IRQ occurs during this time.
Detach the address environment handling from the group structure to the
tcb. This is preparation to fix rare cases where the system (MMU) is left
without a valid page directory, e.g. when a process exits.

Drop to user-space in kernel/protected build with up_pthread_exit,
now all pthread_cleanup functions executed in user mode.
* A new syscall SYS_pthread_exit added
* A new tcb flag TCB_FLAG_CANCEL_DOING added
* up_pthread_exit implemented for riscv/arm arch

arch: Allocate the space from the beginning in up_stack_frame
and modify the affected portion:
1.Correct the stack dump and check
2.Allocate tls_info_s by up_stack_frame too
3.Move the stack fork allocation from arch to sched

getopt() in the FLAT build environment is not thread safe. This is because global variables that are process-specific in Unix are truly global in the FLAT build. Moving the getopt() variables into TLS resolves this issue.
No side-effects are expected other than to getopt()
Tested with sim:nsh
to ensure the basic info(e.g. pid) setup correctly before call arch API

-Move task_init() and task_activate() prototypes from include/sched.h to include/nuttx/sched.h. These are internal OS functions and should not be exposed to the user.
-Remove references to task_init() and task_activate() from the User Manual.
-Rename task_init() to nxtask_init() since since it is an OS internal function
-Rename task_activate() to nxtask_activate since it is an OS internal function
the width of all block comments. Includes a check to assure that all block
comments use the same line width.
Verified against all .c files under /sched. There were a few cosmetic changes to the coding style under /sched to account to new, correctly detected problems in the /sched files.
* Simplify EINTR/ECANCEL error handling
1. Add semaphore uninterruptible wait function
2 .Replace semaphore wait loop with a single uninterruptible wait
3. Replace all sem_xxx to nxsem_xxx
* Unify the void cast usage
1. Remove void cast for function because many place ignore the returned value witout cast
2. Replace void cast for variable with UNUSED macro
