- migrated /README are removed from /boards
- there are a lot of READMEs that should be further converted to rst.
At the moment they are moved to Documentation/platforms and included in rst files
When I try to set priorities in certain programs, such as init_priority(HIGH_PRIORITY), I've noticed that during linking, there's no guarantee that the programs will be compiled in the sequence I've specified based on priority. This has led to some runtime errors in my program.
I realized that in the ld file, when initializing dynamic arrays, there's no assurance of initializing init_array.* before init_array. This has resulted in runtime errors in the program. Consequently, I've rearranged the init_array.* in the ld file of NuttX to be placed before init_array and added a SORT operation to init_array.* to ensure accurate initialization based on priorities during linking.
At present, the serial drivers qemu_serial.c and serial_pl011.c on the fvp-v8r and qemu platforms in arm64 are duplicated
and need to be merged. The plan is to place them under the drivers\serial directory to create a common code module,
so that both fvp-v8r and qemu can use the same code.
In the future, if new platforms use pl011 serial ports, they can also be directly reused

Summary:
Keeping this option out of depend on any common serial.
Using the option, need to implement xxx_lowputc.S/c.
You can also logging the booting message through rewriting
fake arm64_lowputc with other debug method (eg semihosting,
ARM debug channel etc).

Summary:
To reduce the count of FPU context switching will result at a
performance improve with system. it need to balance between
the using of FPU and counts of FPU trap
the PR submit a base method to see performance counts for
the FPU with NuttX procfs
Please read README.txt at chapter of FPU Support and Performance
for more information

Summary:
Adding virtual evaluate platform FVP. This FVP board configuration
will be used to emulate generic ARM64v8-R (Cotex-R82)series hardware
platform and provide support for these devices:
- GICv3 interrupt controllers for ARMv8-r
- PL011 UART controller(FVP)
Note:
1. ostest is PASSED at fvp ( single core and SMP)
2. the FVP tools can be download from ARM site, please check FVP
