When an application is being loaded `up_addrenv_create ` calls
`create_region` to create the address environment. Only the first
entry is mapped when the region is created. Virtual memory that is
not mapped will trigger an exception when accessed. Other memory
pages are allocated and mapped on-demand. This enables setting
larger heap and stack for the process without compromising the
overall system memory.

Fully linked apps take less storage and are efficient to load. This
is to enable them for rv-vrit configurations in KERNEL build.
Changes:
- arch/risc-v/Kconfig select BINFMT_ELF_EXECUTABLE for QEMU-RV
- boards/risc-v/qemu-rv/rv-virt/configs
- knsh32/defconfig enable ELF_EXECUTABLE, LIBM, OSTEST
- knsh64/defconfig enable ELF_EXECUTABLE, LIBM, OSTEST
- ksmp64/defconfig enable ELF_EXECUTABLE, LIBM, OSTEST
- knetnsh64/defconfig enable ELF_EXECUTABLE, LIBM, OSTEST
- knetnsh64_smp/defconfig enable ELF_EXECUTABLE, LIBM, OSTEST
Additions:
- boards/risc-v/qemu-rv/rv-virt/scripts/
- gnu-elf.ld apps linker script
The ARCH_TEXT_VBASE of knsh32 is set to same as that of 64bit to reuse
the apps linker script.

Enable CONFIG_DEV_SIMPLE_ADDRENV for all the qemu configs that used
the virtio driver to fix compile error when use the NuttX implemented
metal io read/write operations.
Becasue up_addrenv_pa_to_va() and up_addrenv_va_to_pa() are not
implemented by default.

1. virtio devics/drivers match and probe/remote mechanism;
2. virtio mmio transport layer based on OpenAmp (Compatible with both
virtio mmio version 1 and 2);
3. virtio-serial driver based on new virtio framework;
4. virtio-rng driver based on new virtio framework;
5. virtio-net driver based on new virtio framework
(IOB Offload implementation);
6. virtio-blk driver based on new virtio framework;
7. Remove the old virtio mmio framework, the old framework only
support mmio transport layer, and the new framwork support
more transport layer and this commit has implemented all the
old virtio drivers;
8. Refresh the the qemu-arm64 and qemu-riscv virtio related
configs, and update its README.txt;
New virtio-net driver has better performance

This provides the initial hooks for Flattened Device Tree support
with QEMU RV. It also provides a new procfs file that exposes the
fdt to userspace much like the /sys/firmware/fdt endpoint in Linux.
See https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-firmware-ofw
Nodes in the fdt are not yet usable by the OS.

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.
