Ville Juven 07039b8a36 lib_abort.c: Change call to userspace exit() into syscall _exit()
The POSIX standard dictates that during abnormal termination the functions
registered by atexit() are _not_ called, also flushing the streams is
optional. So in this case, it is perfectly legal / better to call the
kernel system call _exit() instead.

This fixes regression issues caused by removal exit() from the kernel.

* Name: Abort
*
* Description:
* The abort() first unblocks the SIGABRT signal, and then raises that
* signal for the calling process. This results in the abnormal
* termination of the process unless the SIGABRT signal is caught and
* the signal handler does not return.
*
* If the abort() function causes process termination, all open
* streams are closed and flushed.
*
* If the SIGABRT signal is ignored, or caught by a handler that
* returns, the abort() function will still terminate the process.
* It does this by restoring the default disposition for SIGABRT and
* then raising the signal for a second time.
*
* Input Parameters:
* None
*
* Returned Value:
* This function does not return,
*
****************************************************************************/

/* NuttX does not support standard signal functionality (like the
* behavior of the SIGABRT signal). So no attempt is made to provide
* a conformant version of abort() at this time. This version does not
* signal the calling thread all.
*
* _exit() will close all open files and terminate the thread.
