It seems that "ld -r" on macOS doesn't include objects from
libraries for common symbols. Because of that, sim build
ends up with undefined references to globals like g_binfmts
and g_mmheap.

sched/init/nx_bringup.c: Fix a naming collision.
sched/init: Rename os_start() to nx_start()
sched/init: Rename os_smp* to nx_smp*
sched/init: Rename os_bringup to nx_bringup
sched/init: rename all internal static functions to begin with nx_ vs os_
The solution is to remove all of the memory management function calls from the interface. Instead, the interface exports the userspace heap structure and then kernel size implementations of those memory management functions will operate on the userspace heap structure. This avoids the unnecessary system calls and, more importantly, failures do to freeing memory when a test exits.
