The board name for the nRF52 DK, so far known as nrf52_pca10040, is
renamed to nrf52dk_nrf52832. Its documentation and all references
to its name in the tree are updated accordingly. Overlay and
configuration files specific to this board are also renamed, to
match the new board name.

It is very inconvenient to maintain an application that both runs on a
Zephyr board and an out-of-tree board.
It forces one to write build scripts like this in the app:
if(BOARD STREQUAL my_out_of_tree_board)
set(BOARD_ROOT some/out/of/tree/board/path)
endif()
To avoid this we change the semantics of BOARD_ROOT. Instead of it
being a path to the board root it is now a prioritized list of board
root directories. Zephyr will append ZEPHYR_BASE to BOARD_ROOT.
This ensures that Zephyr boards can be used when the out-of-tree board
directory can not supply the requested board.

Add a sample that demonstrates a custom board definition. This proves
that BOARD_ROOT works and can be a useful reference when creating a
custom board definition.
Instead of spending time making up a board, the nrf52840_pca10056
board has been copied as-is. And the hello world sample has been used
as the basis for the application.
