Although a project's default revision is still "master", we can change
some examples around to refer to "main" branches instead, in keeping
with the changes we're making for Zephyr more generally.
We cannot change the default project revision away from "master" in
west v0.10.x, because that would be a schema change. That will have to
wait for v0.11.0.
However, in the meantime, we are making some inclusive language
changes related to 'west init', because the --mr option is not
governed by a schema. These will be documented in the next commit.

Nothing in the tree is using the "passlist" term in the "blocklist /
passlist" pair. However, west is using "blocklist / allowlist" already
in a released version.
Recommend blocklist/allowlist instead of blocklist/passlist to avoid
having to add yet another possible replacement, since nothing is using
passlist right now.
Note that blocklist/allowlist is in widespread use throughout many
projects, including Chrome.

The west 0.9 documentation for group-filter states:
Only the top level manifest file’s manifest: group-filter:
value has any effect. The manifest: group-filter: values in any
imported manifests are ignored.
This turns out to have been a mistake, because all users who import a
manifest which makes some projects inactive will have to also manually
disable the same groups just to get the same default list of projects.
Example manifest fragments showing the issue:
# my/west.yml
manifest:
projects:
- name: upstream
import: true
and:
# upstream/west.yml
manifest:
group-filter: [-disabled-group]
projects:
- name: i-want-this
- name: i-do-not-want-this
groups:
- disabled-group
As written, my/west.yml will include 'i-do-not-want-this' as an
active project.
This kind of leaky faucet has proven to be an unintuitive and poor
user experience. Users expect to get the default projects without
having to copy the group-filter for everything they import.
We can't reverse this behavior without pushing out a new schema
version, however: manifest schema 0.9, and therefore west 0.9.x, is
doomed to this bad behavior.
What we'll do to move past this is create a new schema version 0.10
that does the right thing, document the 0.10 behavior, and discourage
combining these two features in west 0.9.x.

Move the content related to handling imports that refer to multiple
files handled to right after the ordered list which defines the order
that manifests are imported. The current placement at the end of this
docs section was poorly chosen.
Create subsections for how projects and extensions are decided in the
final resolved manifest.
The project revisions in the top level example manifest fragment are
not important here. Remove them for clarity.
The top level manifest file need not be named west.yml now; adjust
accordingly.

This diff is deceptively complicated. No text is being added or
removed; the only thing that's being done is that the entire 'Manifest
Imports' section is being moved down below the groups and submodules
sections.
This is prep work for a later commit which will document revised
semantics for mixing 'import' with 'group-filter'. This will make
'group-filter' values compose across imports, so it will be useful to
have documentation for group and group-filter before documentation for
imports. That will let us document the way they work together within
the 'Manifest Imports' section without using concepts that haven't yet
been defined.

The xtensa atomics layer was written with hand-coded assembly that had
to be called as functions. That's needlessly slow, given that the low
level primitives are a two-instruction sequence. Ideally the compiler
should see this as an inline to permit it to better optimize around
the needed barriers.
There was also a bug with the atomic_cas function, which had a loop
internally instead of returning the old value synchronously on a
failed swap. That's benign right now because our existing spin lock
does nothing but retry it in a tight loop anyway, but it's incorrect
per spec and would have caused a contention hang with more elaborate
algorithms (for example a spinlock with backoff semantics).
Remove the old implementation and replace with a much smaller inline C
one based on just two assembly primitives.
This patch also contains a little bit of refactoring to address the
scheme has been split out into a separate header for each, and the
ATOMIC_OPERATIONS_CUSTOM kconfig has been renamed to
ATOMIC_OPERATIONS_ARCH to better capture what it means.

To remove the need of empty config files, the `board_check_revision()`
now accepts a list of valid revisions.
As example:
```
board_check_revision(
FORMAT MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH
VALID_REVISIONS 0.1.0 0.5.0 0.10.0
)
```
The code is still compatible with the `<board>_<revision>.conf` changes
so that if different revisions of a board has Kconfig differences, then
there is no need to also specify the list of valid revisions.

Attempts to reimplement the existing work API using a new work

The default shell configuration has heavy flash and memory requirements,
requiring project maintainers to set many configuration options to "n"
to keep flash and memory requirements within reason.
This adds a new configuration option, CONFIG_SHELL_MINIMAL, which will
disable flash and memory heavy options by default, and allow project
maintainers to select/imply only the options they want.
On a quick test from an ARM board I'm working on, enabling this option
cut flash space requirements by ~8 KB, and memory requirements by ~1 KB.
