4c6ab7cfcd unified: added _MOVE_INSTR for RISCV32 architecture
added _MOVE_INSTR for RISCV32 architecture

The store instruction has a different syntax in RISC-V,
compared to the other architectures. Hence, for each
architecture, specify the entire load instruction within
the _MOVE_INSTR variable.

cb0cf9f5f4 kernel: profiling: Expose an API call to analyze call stacks
The main, idle, interrupt and workqueue call stack definitions are not available
to applications to call stack_analyze() on, but they often require to be
measured empirically to tune their sizes in particular applications and
use cases.
This exposes a new k_call_stacks_analyze() API call that allows the
application to measure the used call stack space for the 4
kernel-defined call stacks.
Additionally for the ARC architecture the FIRQ stack is also profiled.

f955476559 kernel/arch: optimize memory use of some thread fields
Some thread fields were 32-bit wide, when they are not even close to
using that full range of values. They are instead changed to 8-bit fields.

- prio can fit in one byte, limiting the priorities range to -128 to 127

- recursive scheduler locking can be limited to 255; a rollover results
  most probably from a logic error

- flags are split into execution flags and thread states; 8 bits is
  enough for each of them currently, with at worst two states and four
  flags to spare (on x86, on other archs, there are six flags to spare)

Doing this saves 8 bytes per stack. It also sets up an incoming
enhancement when checking if the current thread is preemptible on
interrupt exit.

Also remove mentions of unified kernel in various places in the kernel,
samples and documentation.
