This adds X86 keyword to the kconfigs to indicate these are
for x86. The old options are still there marked as
deprecated.

Update the documentation for Lazy Stacking in Cortex-M, to
reflect the functionality changes (activate the lazy stacking
dynamically when building with MPU stack guards).
Make a note that the FP sharing mode is now default in Cortex-M.

This change adds full shared floating point support for the SPARC
architecture.
All SPARC floating point registers are scratch registers with respect
to function call boundaries. That means we only have to save floating
point registers when switching threads in ISR. The registers are
stored to the corresponding thread stack.
FPU is disabled when calling ISR. Any attempt to use FPU in ISR
will generate the fp_disabled trap which causes Zephyr fatal error.
- This commit adds no new thread state.
- All FPU contest save/restore is synchronous and lazy FPU context
switch is not implemented.

Following the change to use the C domain for parsing, update all
existing :cpp:func: references to :c:func:. Remove the parentheses as
well, if used, because they are not needed, this is already known to be
a function, and how it is displayed in the documentation later is a
semantic decision done by the output builder.

This commit renames the Kconfig `FP_SHARING` symbol to `FPU_SHARING`,
since this symbol specifically refers to the hardware FPU sharing
support by means of FPU context preservation, and the "FP" prefix is
not fully descriptive of that; leaving room for ambiguity.

This commit renames the Kconfig `FLOAT` symbol to `FPU`, since this
symbol only indicates that the hardware Floating Point Unit (FPU) is
used and does not imply and/or indicate the general availability of
toolchain-level floating point support (i.e. this symbol is not
selected when building for an FPU-less platform that supports floating
point operations through the toolchain-provided software floating point
library).
Moreover, given that the symbol that indicates the availability of FPU
is named `CPU_HAS_FPU`, it only makes sense to use "FPU" in the name of
the symbol that enables the FPU.

This change adds full shared floating point support for the RISCV
architecture with minimal impact on threads with floating point
support not enabled.

Remove leading/trailing blank lines in .c, .h, .py, .rst, .yml, and
.yaml files.
Will avoid failures with the new CI test in
https://github.com/zephyrproject-rtos/ci-tools/pull/112, though it only
checks changed files.
Move the 'target-notes' target in boards/xtensa/odroid_go/doc/index.rst
to get rid of the trailing blank line there. It was probably misplaced.

This commit adds a short note in reference/kernel/other/float.
The note instructs to apply pre-tagging of ARM threads to
indicate that they indend to use the FP services.

This commit removes the activation of the FP context
in ARM system boot. There is no need to do this, since
the FP context will be activated in the presence of
floating point instructions. We update the reference
documentation accordingly.

This commit updates the documentation as follows:
- stresses that the lazy stacking preservation is disabled
by default and not supported in ARM Cortex-M builds,
- corrects the figure of extra stack requirement when
floating point services are enabled in ARM builds.

This commit provides the following fixes:
- Corrects the note regarding which ARM MCUs may support
floating point services
- Rewords the text stressing the undefined behavior when
multiple threads access the floating point registers.
