Most tools used for compliance and SBOM generation use SPDX identifiers
This change brings us a step closer to an easy SBOM generation.

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.
Assert in nxsem_post if:
- Priority inheritance is enabled on a semaphore
- A thread that does not hold the semaphore attempts to post it
This will detect an error condition described in https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/NUTTX/Signaling+Semaphores+and+Priority+Inheritance
None. The debug instrumentation is only enabled if CONFIG_DEBUG_ASSERTIONS is enabled.
Use sim:ostest. Verify that no assertions occur.
It takes about 10 cycles to obtain the task list according to the task
status. In most cases, we know the task status, so we can directly
delete the task from the specified task list to reduce time consuming.
1. Internal scheduler functions should begin with nxsched_, not sched_
2. Follow the consistent naming patter of https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/NUTTX/Naming+of+OS+Internal+Functions
# clock_systimer -> clock_systime_tick
# clock_systimespec -> clock_systime_timespec
sched_oneshot_extclk -> nxsched_oneshot_extclk
sched_period_extclk -> nxsched_period_extclk
# nxsem_setprotocol -> nxsem_set_protocol
# nxsem_getprotocol -> nxsem_get_protocol
# nxsem_getvalue -> nxsem_get_value
nxsem_initholders -> nxsem_initialize_holders
nxsem_addholder -> nxsem_add_holder
nxsem_addholder_tcb -> nxsem_add_holder_tcb
nxsem_boostpriority -> nxsem_boost_priority
nxsem_releaseholder -> nxsem_release_holder
nxsem_restorebaseprio -> nxsem_restore_baseprio
Some planned name changed were skipped for now because they effect too many files (and would require many hours of coding style fixups).

This commit backs out most of commit b4747286b1. That change was added because sem_wait() would sometimes cause cancellation points inappropriated. But with these recent changes, nxsem_wait() is used instead and it is not a cancellation point.
In the OS, all calls to sem_wait() changed to nxsem_wait(). nxsem_wait() does not return errors via errno so each place where nxsem_wait() is now called must not examine the errno variable.
In all OS functions (not libraries), change sem_wait() to nxsem_wait(). This will prevent the OS from creating bogus cancellation points and from modifying the per-task errno variable.
sched/semaphore: Add the function nxsem_wait(). This is a new internal OS interface. It is functionally equivalent to sem_wait() except that (1) it is not a cancellation point, and (2) it does not set the per-thread errno value on return.
sched/semaphore: Add nxsem_post() which is identical to sem_post() except that it never modifies the errno variable. Changed all references to sem_post in the OS to nxsem_post().
sched/semaphore: Add nxsem_destroy() which is identical to sem_destroy() except that it never modifies the errno variable. Changed all references to sem_destroy() in the OS to nxsem_destroy().
libc/semaphore and sched/semaphore: Add nxsem_getprotocol() and nxsem_setprotocola which are identical to sem_getprotocol() and set_setprotocol() except that they never modifies the errno variable. Changed all references to sem_setprotocol in the OS to nxsem_setprotocol(). sem_getprotocol() was not used in the OS
libc/semaphore: Add nxsem_getvalue() which is identical to sem_getvalue() except that it never modifies the errno variable. Changed all references to sem_getvalue in the OS to nxsem_getvalue().
sched/semaphore: Rename all internal private functions from sem_xyz to nxsem_xyz. The sem_ prefix is (will be) reserved only for the application semaphore interfaces.
libc/semaphore: Add nxsem_init() which is identical to sem_init() except that it never modifies the errno variable. Changed all references to sem_init in the OS to nxsem_init().
sched/semaphore: Rename sem_tickwait() to nxsem_tickwait() so that it is clear this is an internal OS function.
sched/semaphoate: Rename sem_reset() to nxsem_reset() so that it is clear this is an internal OS function.
This caused a problem when the thread calling sem_wait() was very low priority. When it received the count, there may be higher priority threads "hogging" the CPU that prevent the lower priority task from running and, as a result, the sem_addholder() may be delayed indefinitely.
The fix was to have sem_post() call sem_addholder() just before restarting the thread waiting for the semaphore count.
This problem was noted by Benix Vincent who also suggested the solution.
