The overhead of spinlok is less than mutext (mutex need to call
enter_critical section.)
After this patch, `down_write_trylock` and `down_read_trylock` can be
use in interrupt context.
The instruction is protected with mutex only one instruction so using
spinlock is better.

1. add support to join main task

|
| static void *join_task(void *arg)
| {
| int ret;
| ret = pthread_join(self, NULL); <--- /* Fix Task could not be joined */
| return NULL;

|
| int main(int argc, char *argv[])

|
| self = pthread_self();
|
| pthread_create(&thread, NULL, join_task, NULL);
| sleep(1);
|
| pthread_exit(NULL);
| return 0;
| }
2. Detach active thread will not alloc for additional join, just update the task flag.
3. Remove the return value waiting lock logic (data_sem),
the return value will be stored in the waiting tcb.
4. Revise the return value of pthread_join(), consistent with linux
e.g:
Joining a detached and canceled thread should return EINVAL, not ESRCH
https://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/009695399/functions/pthread_join.html
[EINVAL]
The value specified by thread does not refer to a joinable thread.

This PR will not increase stack usage, but struct tcb_s will increase 32 bytes.

The delete flag is not synchronized with the life cycle of the group,
if the flag set before waitpid(), the tcb will be mistakenly deleted
by group_del_waiter(), use-after-free will happen.

Usually the startup script is placed under /etc. The contents of the etc directory
are compiled and linked with Nuttx binary in the form of romfs. After startup,
it will be mounted by Nsh.
etc is generated by the different boards, that use genromfs and xxd tools to generate
and compile it into the Nuttx, for example: boards/arm/at32/at32f437-mini/tool/mkromfs.sh
The more common method is etc image generated from the content in the corresponding
board/arch/board/board/src/etc directory, and added by Makefile for example:
boards/sim/sim/sim/src/etc.
But in kernel/protected mode, Nuttx kernel and apps are run in different privileged/
non-privileged mode or the isolated binarys, so as that nsh should use syscall to
access Nuttx kernel by exported API. In this scenario, nsh can not mount the etc image
content, because that is generated in board and as a part of Nuttx kernel.
changes:
- move etc romfs mount from nsh to Nuttx, but keep the script to parse and execute.
- move and rename the related CONFIG, move customized nsh_romfsimg.h to etc_romfs.c
in boards, and no need declaration for romfs_img/romfs_img_len.
This commit changes and updates all configurations in Nuttx arch/board as much as possible,
but if any missing, please refer to the following simple guide:
- rename CONFIG_NSH_ROMFSETC to CONFIG_ETC_ROMFS, and delete CONFIG_NSH_ARCHROMFS in defconfig
- rename the etc romfs mount configs, for example CONFIG_NSH_FATDEVNO to CONFIG_ETC_FATDEVNO
- move customized nsh_romfsimg.h to etc_romfs.c in board/arch/board/board/src and no need
declaration for romfs_img/romfs_img_len.
- delete default nsh_romfsimg.h, if ROMFSETC is enabled, should generate and compile etc_romfs.c
in board/arch/board/board/src.

A new locking mechanism: read/write locks
When there is a writer it is not possible to put on a read lock or a write lock; when there is a reader it is possible to reenter the read lock but not the write lock.
Writers are exclusive locks, readers are shared locks.
At the same time through the waiter count to determine whether there is currently a blocked task, if there is then in the unlock time to wake up all the waiter, through the priority of the competition to complete the blocked lock execution.
For example:
When we have a reader blocking two waiter writers, when the reader is unlocked it wakes up both writers. The writer with higher priority wakes up and checks for a successful condition and locks the lock, the second writer wakes up and fails to check for a condition and continues to block the lock.

This moves all the public POSIX semaphore functions into libc and with
this most of the user-space logic is also moved; namely cancel point and
errno handling.
This also removes the need for the _SEM_XX macros used to differentiate
which API is used per user-/kernel mode. Such macros are henceforth
unnecessary.
PR #11165 causes an unnecessary regression; task_delete no longer works,
if the deleted task is from another group.
The logic that prevents this comes from:
nxnotify_cancellation() ->
tls_get_info_pid() ->
nxsched_get_stackinfo()
Which checks for permissions, which does not make sense in this case since
it is the kernel asking for the stack information.
Fix this by partially reverting 11165 and implementing a direct path for
the kernel to query for any tasks TLS.
Commit 9244b5a737 added support
for non-standard field si_user that is useful for passing context
pointers to signal handlers.
This commits makes it work for all signals, not just SA_KERNELHAND.
Previously si_user for normal signals was uninitialized garbage.
The task files should consult the "spawn action" and "O_CLOEXEC flags"
to determine further whether the file should be duplicated.
This PR will further optimize file list duplicating to avoid the performance
regression caused by additional file operations.

This moves task / thread cancel point logic from the NuttX kernel into
libc, while the data needed by the cancel point logic is moved to TLS.
The change is an enabler to move user-space APIs to libc as well, for
a coherent user/kernel separation.
Some assertions in extreme cases will cause syslog to be unable to
output logs normally, so this PR will restore the input registers
into the array of last registers to ensure that we can also obtain
some important informations.

If the semaphore is shared, the holder has put its own mmapped address
to pholder->sem. This means we must switch to the holder's address
environment when going through the held semaphores list.
A better option would be to get the kernel mapped address for the
semaphore's physical page, but that mechanism is not functional yet.
This fixes a full system crash when CONFIG_PRIORITY_INHERITANCE=y and
CONFIG_BUILD_KERNEL=y and user makes shared semaphore via:
int semfd = shm_open("sem", O_CREAT | O_RDWR, 0666);
sem_t *sem = mmap(0, sizeof(sem_t), PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE, MAP_SHARED, semfd, 0);
Previous adjtime() implementation was limited to adjusting system
timer tick period. This commit reimplements the internals to use
a kernel watchdog timer. Platform-independent part of the code now
works also for adjusting hires RTC and tickless timer rate.
User code facing API is unchanged. Architecture code API has changed:
up_adj_timer_period() is replaced by up_adjtime().
Other improvements:
- Support query of remaining adjustment by passing NULL to first
argument of adjtime(). This matches Linux behavior.
- Improve resolution available for architecture driver, previously
limited to 1 microsecond per tick. Now 1 nanosecond per second.
